This is the second dish called “hodgepodge”. This mushroom hodgepodge is prepared on the basis of stewed cabbage. Mushrooms are fried with onions and pickles, stacked in layers with stewed cabbage, then the mushroom hodgepodge is baked in the oven.
Put the cabbage in a saucepan with vegetable oil (2 tablespoons), add a little water (about 0.3 cups) and simmer for about 1 hour.
When the cabbage is soft, add the tomato puree, salt, bay leaf and apple cider vinegar, and sugar to the pan. (Sugar must be added to add flavor to winter cabbage varieties. If the cabbage is young and sweet enough, then you don’t need to.)
Mix everything well.
Wash the mushrooms, put in a saucepan. Boil the kettle. Pour boiling water over the mushrooms. Boil mushrooms over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
Peel the onion, wash, chop finely.
Place the mushrooms in a colander, cool, cut into slices.
Cut the cucumbers into slices.
Preheat a frying pan, pour in vegetable oil (1.5 tablespoons). Put the onion in hot oil. Fry over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown (2-3 minutes).
Preheat a frying pan, pour in vegetable oil (1.5 tablespoons). Put the mushrooms in hot oil. Fry the mushrooms in oil over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
Add fried onions, sliced cucumber, salt to the mushrooms and simmer all the products under the lid for 20 minutes, over low heat.
Turn on the oven. Place cabbage and mushrooms in layers in an ovenproof dish (or deep frying pan). First, cabbage (half a serving).
Then mushrooms.
In this case, the top layer should be cabbage. Sprinkle with oil on top (1 tbsp).
Put the mold in the oven on the middle shelf and bake the mushroom hodgepodge in the oven for 30 minutes at 190 degrees.
