I always thought borsht soup was just made with beets until I tried this recipe. Sorry cannot advise amount of water - this is the way the recipe was given to me and so I would assume using a normal size soup/stock pot.
Ingredients:
3 cups boneless beef cubes
1 large onion
water, to cover
7 -8 large beets, cubed (or 20 small)
5 -7 bay leaves
1/4 cup white vinegar, to taste (up to 1/2 cup)
sour cream
Directions:
1. Brown beef cubes with onion and salt & pepper to taste. (I used moose meat).
2. Cover with 4 cups water and simmer 1/2 hour on low.
3. Add cubed beets (8-10 cups) and simmer 10 minutes.
4. Add more water til pot is 3/4 full. (I added 8 cups beef broth).
5. Add bay leaves and simmer 1 hour.
6. Add vinegar to taste and simmer 1 hour uncovered.
7. Remove bay leaves and serve with dollop of sour cream.
