Beet-Raspberry Cold Soup

Servings: 4
Calories: 430.1

Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium beets
  • 250 gr. raspberries leave some out to garnish
  • fresh mint
  • 150 gr. Greek yogurt
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar or balsamic vinegar
  • 100 ml. water or more
  • salt and pepper
  • honey or sugar to taste
  • for serving: ice cubes with mint and raspberries

Method
 

  1. Wash and scrub the whole beets to clean off any dirt. Take a large piece of aluminum foil and wrap each beet, then place in the oven and roast approximately 1 to 2 hours (depending on the size of your beets) or until tender and easily pierced with the tip of a fork, at 180 degree C.
  2. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
  3. Then peel the skin off and cut into pieces.
  4. Place the beet chunks in a blender and turn into puree. Start adding all the other ingredients.
  5. Add water until it reaches a smooth consistency, taste and adjust with lime juice, vinegar, salt and honey.
  6. I like to sieve my soup to make it silky smooth because my boys don’t like the raspberry seeds in it.
  7. Refrigerate before serving.

Notes

Serve soup garnished with ice cubes (with mint leaves) and yogurt.
