Instructions
Step 1
In spring, the body suffers from a lack of vitamins as never before. Fasting is a great time to delight your family with healthy salads. Take white cabbage, rinse it, chop it into strips, drain the juice and grind it with salt. Add finely chopped apples, previously peeled, to the cabbage. Add chopped carrots and bell peppers. The salad should be seasoned with sugar and vegetable oil. You can make any other vegetable salad of your choice, but during the post it will be correct to season it with vegetable oil, soy mayonnaise, or choose juicy vegetables that do not need additional dressing.
Step 2
Prepare pickle as a first course. To do this, soak a small amount of pearl barley for several hours. Put the saucepan with the barley on the fire and after boiling, put the potato sticks. Fry the carrots and onions separately and add them to the saucepan. Shortly before the potatoes are ready, cut pickles into the soup and season with brine. Before turning off the soup, add garlic, bay leaves, dried or fresh herbs.
Step 3
Potatoes with mushrooms is a tasty and satisfying dish that fits perfectly into the lean menu. Cut the potatoes into wedges and fry them with onions in vegetable oil. When the potatoes are almost cooked, dust the wedges with flour and fry until crisp. Boil and chop dried mushrooms, drain the broth. Prepare the sauce for the dish. Take two and a half glasses of mushroom broth, boil and pour in a thin stream half a glass of cold broth mixed with flour. After the sauce has thickened, add garlic, vegetable oil, and salt. Place the potatoes in a large plate, cover them with mushrooms and pour the sauce over the dish.
Step 4
As a dessert, please your loved ones with boiled jelly and compotes from fresh, frozen berries or dried fruits. After such a dinner, fasting will not seem so harsh to you.
