SCHI

Schi is a very popular soup which is very easy to make and you do not need lots of ingredients.

Ingredients

• 2 medium onions
• 4 carrots
• 5 potatoes
• 2 bay leafs
• 1 small cabbage
• salt and black pepper to taste 
• garlic 3-4 cloves
• 1-2 tomatoes

Fill the pan with water. 

Boil the water and put 2 onions inside.   If you do not peel onions, just wash them, broth will have deeply brown color and will look much more bright.

Simply boil onions (4-5l pan) for 20-30 min until you see water acquired a lil yellow or brown tint.

  Add bay leafs, salt and pepper.

Cut potatoes.

Cut carrots.

Cut cabbage and put vegetables into onion broth.

First carrots, in 5 minutes potatoes and in 5-7 minutes add cabbage.

Now, you can prepare tomato-garlic filling for soup.

 Pour the tomato with boiling water.

 
 And remove the skin.

Chop the garlic and mash with tomato. 
And filling is ready. 

The filling you can use directly to pan, 5 minutes before you turn the stove off.

Or directly to plate. It depends on taste.
In Russia almost all soups eat with soup cream.
But if you don not like it or it's hard to buy sour cream in your country, soup is tasty also without it.
