Then pour in the strained broth, cover the pan with a lid, reduce heat to low and simmer for 45 minutes. Grind the contents of a skillet with a blender and add 250 grams of heavy cream. Heat the resulting mass and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Peel the apple, remove the core and seeds, cut into small cubes. Salt in 100 grams of butter, add a little salt. Transfer the beetroot mixture to a bowl, add apple and eel slices. Serve with sour cream.

Cut 400 grams of smoked eel fillets into thin strips and add to the cabbage. Sprinkle the eel with 50 grams of pine nuts and chopped prunes. Season the salad with a mixture of 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the same amount of brandy, one tablespoon of lemon juice and half a teaspoon of mustard. Mix all the ingredients, garnish with chopped herbs and pomegranate seeds.
