Okroshka is an amazing dish! No matter how much you cook it, it is still eaten in one day. Moreover, as my family noticed, it is not so important whether it is hot or cold outside.

By the way, this cold soup has been known for a very long time and has undergone a huge number of changes in its composition. Therefore, everyone has their own traditional recipe.

Today we will cook okroshka on kefir. Perhaps someone will be surprised, but in fact, its sourness and density only add spice to the freshness of vegetables. And, of course, I will not bypass gourmets, a completely unusual recipe with salmon has been prepared for them.

Diet okroshka on kefir with mineral water

Meat and vegetables are taken as the basis, but everyone under these concepts understands something of their own. Someone uses sausages as meat, and someone uses turkey.

Dietary products in okroshka can be considered everything except potatoes and sausages.

We will simply remove the tubers from the recipe, and add the correct protein in the form of chicken (you can replace it with turkey). This is important, both for losing weight and for those who are building muscle.

To get more trace elements and vitamins, do not spare the greens, everything will do: dill, parsley, celery, onion and even cilantro.

In this recipe, kefir is diluted with mineral water. Of course, you can not do this, but then you get a very thick consistency. Yes, and bubbles in mineral water give an interesting note and taste.

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs
• 1 cucumber
• 1 boiled chicken breast
• Greenery
• 2.5 l kefir
• 100 ml mineral water

Boil the eggs for 10 minutes, and the fillet for 30 minutes until tender.

Finely chop all the ingredients. To get more thick, you can separate the meat fibers with a fork.

We mix all the ingredients and pour kefir and mineral water.

For those who lose weight, salt is not put in this recipe, but you can replace it with natural salt in the mineral water itself, for example, Essentuki No. 7.

Also, for saturation, you can add a spoonful of horseradish or mustard.

If you need not so much protein as a healthy snack, then add celery or lettuce to greens.

Classic sausage recipe

Yet most of Russia cooks this dish with sausage. Everyone likes its combination with eggs and cucumber. Of course, you can experiment and take several varieties of sausage. But still the most popular recipe, which is also called the classic, is made with doctor's low-fat sausage.

By the way, this is one of the most affordable types of meat products. And you can often see a promotion or a discount on it.

Ingredients;

• 200 g boiled sausage
• 5 potatoes
• 4 fresh cucumbers
• Dill and onion greens
• 1 liter of kefir
• 0.3 l boiled water
• 1 clove of garlic
• Salt pepper

Squeeze garlic into kefir and dilute this mixture with water.

Grind all the ingredients and mix in one bowl or pan.

Pour the prepared filling into the soup.

Let's try salt. It happens that the sausage gives its flavor and salt is not required, but look at your taste,

And my grandmother didn’t cut potatoes, but mashed them. It turns out a pleasant density, which always settles in a spoon.

How to cook Azerbaijani okroshka (ovdukh)

When it's incredibly hot, you really want to freshen up. And we drink a lot, but in the heat we lose strength as well as in the cold. Therefore, you need to eat, and so there is an excellent dish when you can quench your thirst and get enough. It is called - ovdukh.

It was invented in Azerbaijan, but now it seems that it has no nationality, because everyone loves such okroshka.

Ingredients:

• 1 l kefir
• 200 g greens
• 4 medium cucumbers
• 1 head of onion

We will grate 2 cucumbers on a coarse grater, and cut the remaining pair into cubes.

We cut greens and mix them with grated cucumbers. It is necessary to salt and crush this mass with a pusher so that the juice stands out.

Then add chopped vegetables. Fill with kefir and salt to taste.

For spice, you can add a clove of garlic.

If you use this dish not as a soup, but as a drink, then you can add plain boiled water to kefir to make it easier to drink.

Delicious Mustard Recipe

Okroshka with mustard was opened for me by my mother-in-law. She, before seasoning the chopped ingredients, dilutes a spoonful of mustard in a glass of mineral water. And then this mixture is poured into kefir or sour cream.

The taste is unusual, a little vigorous, but with sourness. By the way, the aroma does not come from mustard, but from all the ingredients, I didn’t even understand at first that mustard was present.

Ingredients:

• Boiled veal - 0.2 kg
• Boiled potatoes - 4 pcs
• Cucumber - 2 pcs
• Boiled eggs - 2 pcs
• Radishes - 150 g
• Mustard - 2 tsp
• Kefir - 1 l
• Greens, pepper and salt

To make it tastier, divide the eggs into whites and yolks.

Rub the yolks with mustard and finely chopped herbs.

Pour kefir into this mixture. You can season it with salt or pepper to taste.

We take lean veal and cook it until soft. Then finely chop.

To make the meat juicier, it must be laid out in boiling water, then the closed pores will not blow out the juice.

Cut potatoes, radishes, squirrels and cucumbers.

Put in a bowl and fill with kefir sauce.

You can beautifully serve a portion by placing a salad mass in a round shape in the center. And pour the sauce around.

Okroshka on kefir with chicken

Chicken is an excellent substitute for sausage in many dishes. And she is more often at hand. For example, when there is a desire to make several food options at once, then the broth is boiled for soup, and the finished meat is used in a salad or okroshka.

Ingredients:

• Chicken fillet - 0.4 kg
• Potato - 0.5 kg
• Eggs - 7 pcs.
• Radishes - 0.3 kg
• Cucumbers - 0.3 kg
• Greens - 0.3 kg
• Kefir - 900 ml
• Sour cream - 300 ml
• Water - 2 l
• Mustard - 1.2 tbsp.
• Salt, citric acid

Boil the chicken fillet until soft, cool and chop or separate the fibers with a fork.

We cut the potatoes and eggs into cubes with an egg cutter.

We chop the radish.

We prepare the cucumbers and add them to the common pan.

Grind the greens, to which we spread a spoonful of mustard and sour cream.

All this must be rubbed and put in a common container.

Salt and pour 0.5 tsp. citric acid, then pour cold soup with kefir and water.

Not everyone favors citric acid, so it is better to replace it with lemon juice.

Delicious proven recipe with radishes and meat

We will take beef meat. Take fresh, it tastes more tender, and it cooks faster.
You may have noticed that any meat product is very much complemented by fresh vegetables. For example, as soon as a salad with chicken plays, it is worth chopping a cucumber and a tomato for it.

Since okroshka is considered a spring dish, we often find radishes in its composition. We begin to eat this vegetable very first, because neither cucumbers nor tomatoes have yet had time to give the first harvest in May, and okroshka with radishes is already ready.

So let's start cooking.

Ingredients:

• 1 liter of kefir
• 200 g boiled meat
• 200 g boiled potatoes
• 200 g cucumbers
• 200 g radish
• 4 chicken eggs
• Greenery
• Salt pepper

Please note that we take all the ingredients in the same proportions.

We wash the radish well and cut off the buttocks.

Boil the meat until it becomes soft. It is better to take beef or veal.

We grind all products.

But we do not cut one cucumber, but rub it on a grater. This will release more juice, and the soup itself will become thicker. I know that many eggs do not cut everything, and sometimes they leave one thing, which then grate it.

See how much meat you have left that you can’t shift the potatoes. After all, okroshka, first of all, is a healthy and light dish, it is important to stop here in time and not oversaturate it with carbohydrates.

Unusual composition with salmon

I have never tried to eat salted fish with a fermented milk product. But in our Ural cafes and restaurants you can see this amazing combination on the menu. Surprisingly, the taste of fish okroshka is very delicate, and the smell of salmon is almost not felt.

Ingredients:

• 150 g lightly salted salmon
• 3 small cucumbers
• 1 celery stalk
• 0.5 onion heads
• 100 g greens
• 1 potato tuber
• 2 eggs
• 150 ml kefir
• 1 tsp mustard
• 10 ml mineral water

Boil potatoes and eggs ahead of time. Cool them down and start shredding them finely.

Try to get the bones out of the salmon. This is important, especially if there are children at the table.

Rinse greens under running water and dry on a towel. If there is no desire to cut with a knife, then ordinary kitchen scissors will cut the greens just as well.

Chop all the ingredients and mix them in one bowl.

Fill with kefir and mineral water. Then stir the mustard into the soup.

Advice for those who like to dilute kefir with mineral water - do not take a highly carbonated type, because your soup may foam, it is better to take a medium carbonated one.

The question arises - how much to pour mineral water. There are no unambiguous proportions here. If you do not like the taste of kefir, then dilute them one by one.

In ancient Rus', okroshka was prepared from just two ingredients - kvass and radish, cut into small cubes. Hence the name of the Russian dish - from the verb "crush", that is, finely cut. Over time, boiled vegetables, eggs and greens were included in the list of ingredients. For greater satiety, boiled meat, tongue, sausage, or several meat products were added to okroshka. Today, cold soup is seasoned not only with homemade kvass, but also with broth, water, sour cream, kefir, etc. This is how okroshka on kefir appeared.

Prepared products are cut, and then poured with kefir and diluted with broth, boiled or mineral water to the consistency of a thick soup. Since the classic okroshka does not require cooking, fresh vegetables and herbs retain the entire complex of useful vitamins, and kefir normalizes digestion. Well-salted and necessarily cold okroshka perfectly satisfies both hunger and thirst. In addition, the preparation is quite simple, and the density and calorie content of the dish can be easily adjusted at your discretion.

I will add to the above that okroshka on kefir according to the classic recipe is surprisingly satiating: after 3 hours you can not think about food, since, among other products, chicken is also included. It turns out a healthy and dietary dish. A lot of pluses!
