How many potatoes do you need in borscht? It depends on what kind of borscht you like: liquid or thick. But usually this dish is made in such a way that "the spoon is standing".
Based on a 3 liter saucepan you need 2-3 medium potatoes the size of a woman's fist and weighing 150-180 grams. If very small, then take 5-6, and two are enough for large ones.
Based on a 5 liter saucepan you will need 5-6 medium potatoes, 8-10 small or 4 large ones.
When determining how many potatoes to put in borscht, you should consider what other products have already been added. Let's say if you put a lot of beets and cabbage, adding a lot of potatoes will make delicious borscht porridge without broth at all.
