Kharcho beef soup with rice is a well-known dish of Georgian cuisine, which has been tasted by many, even if you have never been to its historic Motherland. This recipe is especially popular in the cold season, as it has a powerful warming property. By the way, some people think that kharcho soup with rice should be cooked not at all from beef, but from lamb. Indeed, such an option exists, although it is nothing more than an echo of the Soviet era. Why? But because lamb food was once cooked in the Kremlin kitchen to please one member of the government who could not stand beef. If you have no aversion to this meat, prepare kharcho soup according to this recipe and enjoy its wonderful taste.
