Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium beets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, chopped yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 2 medium, chopped carrots
- 2 chopped celery stalks
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup coconut cream
- 1 bay leaf
Instructions
Wash and peel the beets. Chop them into small chunks for easier cooking.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and saute for about 5 minutes, until they are translucent.
Add the minced garlic and saute for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the chopped carrots and celery, and cook for about 5 minutes.
Add the chopped beets to the pot, then pour in the vegetable broth. Add the bay leaf, and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 30-35 minutes, or until the beets are tender.
Remove the bay leaf, and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar, chopped dill, salt, and pepper.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with a drizzle of coconut cream and additional fresh dill if desired.
For added flair, pair with crusty bread or vegan sour cream on the side.
