Prjazhenina
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Sauté the ribs and sausage in melted lard or ready-made rendered fat, then simmer everything in a flour-based sauce. You can cook it right away in a high, thick-bottomed frying pan, or first fry separately and then simmer in a saucepan. If you have homemade sausage, use it—it will taste even better! Sounds good? Then let me tell you in detail. Serve hot.
