Peel and dice the beets, potatoes, and carrot into small cubes. Set aside.
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the diced beets, potatoes, and carrot. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are fork-tender.
Using an immersion blender (or transferring the soup in batches to a blender), blend the soup until smooth.
Stir in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh dill and a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy!
