Mushrooms cleaned, rinsed, poured cold water and leave for at least 2 hours to remove all sand. After that, carefully remove the mushrooms from the water (rather than drain the water!), Rinse again under cold running water and dry. Fry the mushrooms in small portions on a strongly heated vegetable oil. The juice, which forms during the frying process, is poured into a bowl. After roasting, add all the portions of mushrooms together and fry them again. Carrots clean and boil in a small amount of salted water for 15 minutes. Wash the greens and drain them. Cut the boiled carrots into thick slices, peel the green leaves into separate twigs. Garlic clean and cut across the plates. In dry, pre-sterilized canisters put fried mushrooms, alternating them with slices of boiled carrots, plates of garlic and twigs of greens. In the juice with butter, left after roasting mushrooms, sprinkle salt, pour vinegar to taste and bring to a boil. Prepare the dressing to pour mushrooms.

After that, the cans are tightly sealed, cooled and stored in a cool place. Fried mushrooms can be prepared with onions. To do this, 2 large onion heads need to be cut into cubes, fry in vegetable oil in a separate frying pan and mix with the mushrooms during the last frying.
