Season with salt, pepper, and spices like cumin and paprika. 6. Serve hot, optionally garnished with parsley or cilantro.

⭐️ Nutrition facts:

Borsch is usually low in calories but rich in vitamins and minerals, thanks to the varied vegetables. Beetroot, the main ingredient, provides fiber, folate, and manganese. Other vegetables add vitamins A, C, and K, along with antioxidants and fiber. If meat is included, it also offers a good source of protein.
