Categories: Lifetime tv, Life4

Yield: 4 servings

      2 tb Butter
      1    Onion; chopped
  5 1/2 c  Beef stock
     28 oz Canned chopped tomatoes
  1 1/4 lb Beets; cut into 1/4-inch
           -- slices with peel
    1/2 lb Shredded cabbage
      4    Carrots; cut into chunks
      3    Bay leaves
  1 1/2 tb Caraway seeds

      2 tb Cider vinegar
           Salt and pepper; to taste
           Sour cream; for garnish
           Orange zest strips; garnish

1. Melt butter in the pressure cooker over medium heat and add the onion. Cook until softened, about 3 min.
2. Add the stock, sliced beets, tomatoes, cabbage, carrots, and bay leaves.
3. Lock in the lid, and over high heat, bring to high pressure. Adjust the heat to maintain high pressure and cook for 10 min. Let the pressure drop naturally or by quick release by placing in cold water.
4. Carefully tilt the pot away from you to avoid steam, and remove the lid. Remove bay leaves. Stir in caraway seeds and cider vinegar.
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste, garnish with sour cream and orange zest, and serve.
