Step 1
Place the meat in a pot. Pour boiling water over it and cook for 30 minutes. We do it this way because we want to get tasty meat. If you pour cold water over the meat, all the juices and flavor will go into the broth.

Grate the pickled cucumbers coarsely. Place them in a separate saucepan. Pour water over them and cook separately. The water will reduce. Add more water as needed. The cucumbers will cook separately for about 20–25 minutes.

When the meat is cooked, remove it from the broth. Cut it into cubes and return to the broth. Also add the tomato sauté to the broth. Simmer for 10–15 minutes. The flavors will blend, and the solyanka will develop a rich, stable taste. Pour the cucumbers into the solyanka together with the water they were boiled in. Stir. Now season the solyanka with spices and salt. Add olives, black olives, and lemon slices.
