Ingredients

Put beef in large pot with 9 cups (2L) of cold water and salt. Bring to a boil, skimming foam off the surface. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 50 minutes, regularly skimming more foam.
Finely chop or use food processor to “puree” beets. Mix with vinegar, sugar, and tomato paste in a bowl. Set aside.
Sauté onion with olive oil for 2 minutes, then add grated carrots and sauté another 3 minutes or until soft.
After the meat has simmered 50 minutes, add potatoes and simmer for 10 minutes. Add beets, cabbage, onions, carrots, and diced tomatoes. Cook another 10 minutes. Stir in parsley, pepper, and garlic. Add bay leaves and salt to taste, then cover and remove pot from heat. Let stand 20 minutes. Remove bay leaves and garlic and garnish with sour cream and dill.
