The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Beef is cut into pieces, fried in oil, then simmered with bay leaf and water. The meat should be simmered over low heat. Then the vegetables are combined with the meat and mixed. If necessary, add a little more water or broth. Besides onions and cucumbers, Russian-style meat can also be served with sour cream mixed with grated horseradish. The finished dish can be served at the table.
