Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh radishes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 medium potato, peeled and diced
- 1 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Wash and trim the radishes, cutting them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves, then add them to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
Add the chopped radishes and diced potato to the pot, stirring occasionally for another 3 minutes.
Pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the radishes and potatoes are tender.
Remove the pot from heat and allow it to cool slightly. Carefully blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or by transferring in batches to a countertop blender.
Return the blended soup to the pot, or a clean pot if you used a countertop blender.
Stir in the low-fat Greek yogurt until well combined. Heat gently on a low setting, being careful not to let it boil.
Add the freshly ground black pepper and sea salt, adjusting to taste.
Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of fresh dill before serving.
