Kulesh
Description
A hearty first course dish. It is not exactly known whether kulesh is a Belarusian or Ukrainian dish. Likewise, the original recipe for this dish has not been preserved, so it is prepared differently everywhere. In any case, kulesh is a soup or porridge that always includes millet. I don't know how tasty the original kulesh is, but the one prepared according to this recipe truly deserves attention and compliments :) I highly recommend it. Ladle into bowls and serve.
