Ingredients

  • 10 cups of beef stock
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 carrot grated
  • ½ small cabbage shredded
  • 1 cup sauerkraut
  • 3 medium potatoes cubed
  • 1 tomato diced
  • 1 red pepper cubed in small pieces
  • shredded meat from soup bones
  • 1 bay leaf
  • salt and pepper
  • ¼ cup chopped dill
  • serve with sour cream and dark rye bread

Instructions

  • Add oil to the Instant Pot and turn onto Saute. Cook onion, garlic and carrot for about 5 minutes until soft and caramelized.
  • Add shredded cabbage, sauerkraut, potatoes, chopped tomatoes, meat from soup bones, bay leaf. Fill with beef broth to the MAX ⅔ line. Close lid and set vent to SEALING. Set the instant pot to MANUAL function for 4 minutes.
  • When complete, carefully slightly open the sealed valve to VENTING to slowly release pressure. I use a tea towel to cover the release so it doesn't spray everywhere, and won't burn me.
  • When released, unlock the Instant Pot and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in fresh dill. Serve with Rye Bread and sour cream.

Notes

When adding the shedded cabbage into the Instant Pot, it will be very full. Don't worry, cabbage breaks down when heated. When making bone broth, I always add bones with meat on them as well, to use in the soup. If you don't have meat on your bones, you can skip this step, but it tastes better with meat.
