It goes very good with potato puree and even better with boiled buckwheat.

  7. When onion is ready (it gains yellow color), increase heat under the frying pan, move onion to the side of the pan and put there meat. You need to fry all meat over on the high heat, don’t forget to steer onion so it won’t burn:

  8. After you fried each meat piece over, mix meat with onion, add salt, black pepper and all bay leaves. Put lid on, reduce heat to low and let meet stew for 10-15 mins, depends of the quality of your meat you may need to let it stew for more time if you are tasting meat and it looks too hard:

  9. When meat is ready, remove lid and strew 2-3 table spoons flour over the meat, steer everything, put lid on and let it stew for 5 mins more. Make sure heat is not high to avoid flour from burning:
