Preparation

  1. Make the vegetable soup using twice the amount of water called for. Simmer the beef in the soup for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until it is very tender. Add the beets and dill and cook for 10 minutes more. Serve with sour cream on top. A boiled potato in each bowl makes this a whole meal.
