Preparation
Step 1
Peel and rinse the vegetables in advance. Choose boneless pork. You can substitute it with beef or chicken if desired.
Step 2
Set your multicooker to the “Fry” or “Sauté” mode. Pour in a bit of vegetable oil. Cut the pork into small pieces and place it in the hot bowl. Fry for 12–15 minutes until it starts browning.
Step 3
While the pork is cooking, prepare the vegetables: finely chop the onion, grate the carrot on a coarse grater, and cut the tomato and bell pepper into small cubes.
Step 4
Add all the chopped vegetables to the bowl with the meat.
Step 5
Then add the grated beetroot. Mix everything well and continue frying with the meat for another 15 minutes.
Step 6
Meanwhile, finely shred the cabbage and cut the peeled potatoes into pieces.
Step 7
Switch the multicooker to the “Stew” mode for 1 hour. Add the cabbage and potatoes to the bowl. Pour in hot water until all ingredients are covered. Add salt and spices to taste. You can add a bay leaf for extra aroma. Close the lid and let it cook.
Step 8
After an hour, the multicooker will signal that the dish is ready. Pour the borscht into bowls and serve hot. Optionally, add a spoonful of sour cream. Enjoy!
