👨‍🍳 Instructions
Prepare ingredients
Cut beef into small cubes.
Dice the onion.

Rinse the buckwheat well under cold water.
1️⃣ Cook onion first
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add diced onion and cook 3–4 minutes until lightly browned.
2️⃣ Add beef
Tip: Let the beef sit at room temperature for a short time before cooking — this helps prevent it from releasing too much liquid and reduces oil use.
Add beef to the onion.
Spread beef in one layer so it browns instead of steaming.
Cook on maximum heat about 7 minutes until beef becomes dark and onion is soft. Stir occasionally.
3️⃣ Add carrots
Add carrots.
Reduce heat to medium and cook 2–3 minutes.
4️⃣ Add spices and liquid

Add whole (uncut) garlic cloves.
Pour in 5–6 cups hot water.
Add bay leaves and Worcestershire sauce.
Mix very well.
5️⃣ Slow cook the meat
Reduce heat to low.
Cook uncovered for about 1 hour.
6️⃣ Add turnip
Add turnip.
Cook another 20 minutes.
7️⃣ Remove bay leaves
Take out the bay leaves.
Check that the turnip is soft.
8️⃣ Add buckwheat
Add washed buckwheat kasha.
Increase heat to medium.
Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, 15–20 minutes until liquid no longer covers the buckwheat.
9️⃣ Finish the dish
Add fresh parsley.
Turn off the heat.
Cover and let rest 20 minutes.
