When Vron first served this tasty soup up for us, we knew that it had to feature on our website.

Is beetroot soup borscht?

Yes, that’s exactly right – it is!

Borscht is commonly known as a Ukrainian beetroot soup and is well known for it’s wonderfully deep red colour – it’s a visual treat!

Can you freeze beetroot soup?

This beetroot soup recipe freezes very well indeed.

Make sure that the soup has cooled down and then freeze it. We usually use freezer bags and in one or two portion quantaties.

How can I make this soup vegan?

That’s really easy to answer, just use a vegan crème fraiche or leave it out completely and hey presto – it’s vegan!

Blender
Chopping board
Sharp knife

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Beetroot we used vacuum packed no vinegar beetroot
  • 1 Large onion
  • 4¼ cups vegetable stock
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 2 tbsp Crème fraiche
US Customary – Metric

Instructions

  • Finely chop the onion
  • Roughly chop the beetroot – it's best do this on a surface that can't stain
  • Prepare your stock
  • Heat the butter in a pan and then gently fry the onions until they are soft
  • Now add in the beetroot and stock and let it simmer for around 20 minutes
  • It should be a wonderfully rich red colour now and then remove it from the heat
  • Place it in the blender and give it a good blitz until you get the consistency that you prefer
  • Place it back in the saucepan and warm it up again
  • Serve in bowls and garnish with crème fraiche and chopped chives (we chop it with scissors)
  • Enjoy!

Notes

If you would like to make this soup vegan, then simply replace the crème fraiche for a vegan version and then everyone can enjoy it!
