Why waste beetroot greens? Trouble is many of us don’t know what to do with them. This Polish vegetarian soup comes to the rescue, a delicious combination of hearty root vegetables and nutrition-packed beetroot greens.
Ingredients
- 2 carrots, peeled and diced
- 1 parsnip, peeled and diced
- ½ celery roots (celeriac), peeled and cubed
- 1 leek, sliced
- cold water to cover
- 5 beets with leaves and stems – beets peeled and chopped, leaves sliced
- 3 potatoes, diced
- 1 cube vegetable bouillon
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 dash lemon juice, or to taste
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs, hard boiled
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
Directions
Step 1
Combine carrot, parsley root, celeriac, and leek in a large pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and stock cube. Add beet and beet leaves and cook until beet and beet greens are tender, about 25 minutes. Season with sugar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Simmer until flavors are well combined, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 2
Combine cream, flour, and 3 tablespoons of soup and mix until smooth. Add to pot and stir in well. Place pot back on stove and bring to a boil. Add dill and remove from heat.
Step 3
