About the dish

Ciorbă de cartofi is a traditional sour soup that is typically made with potatoes and other vegetables or pork. Since potatoes are the main ingredient, vegetables such as red peppers, onions, or tomatoes are added in small quantity for a bit of extra color and texture. The potatoes and vegetables or meat are boiled until they are cooked, and everything is seasoned with borş, sour cream, and parsley. It should be enjoyed while hot, served with scallions, fresh or pickled hot peppers, and bread.
