Anita says:
Hello, what form is жа́рки in the first example? I only managed to find жаркий. Thanks.
Learn Russian Words says:
Hi Anita,
Жарки is the Genitive from жарка (frying). Comes from the verb жарить (to fry).
You can do the same with варить (to boil) -> варка (boiling).
Anita says:
Could words be formed in this way with all the verbs? I have to say, I looked up жа́рки in 3 different online dictionaries before I asked the question, and all came back with жаркий. Now even with жарка, all I could find is ‘short feminine singular of жа́ркий’ and ‘genitive singular of жаро́к’.

Hi Anita,
No, this rule is not universal. There a few different ways to form nouns from verbs in Russian, some work for some verbs/nouns, others for others.
Жарка is a bit a of colloquial word. That’s why you can’t find it, I guess. I have found it in ABBYY Lingvo: https://www.lingvolive.com/ru-ru/translate/ru-en/%D0%B6%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BA%D0%B0
