Easy Beet Soup Recipe

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 6 medium beets, peeled and chopped
• 2 cups beef stock
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 0.25 cup heavy cream, or as needed

Instructions

1. Prepare all ingredients for the recipe.
2. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic in the hot oil until softened but not browned, approximately 5 minutes.
3. Incorporate the beets and cook for an additional minute.
4. Add the stock, then season with salt and pepper according to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until the beets are tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and let it cool down slightly.
5. In batches, blend the soup in a food processor until it reaches a smooth consistency. Return the blended soup to the saucepan and cook over low heat until completely heated.
6. Serve the soup into 4 bowls and garnish each serving with a swirl of cream for enhanced flavor.
