Cabbage Solianka
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Cabbage solyanka is a sort of post-holiday dish, made when you have a variety of leftover ingredients in the fridge that need to be used up. The essence of solyanka is combining many different ingredients. In fact, the word "solyanka" has even extended beyond cooking—it's commonly used to describe a mixture of diverse objects or people. The same applies here: mix one thing, another, a third, a fourth—and you'll end up with a very tasty dish. Serve hot.
