Number Of Ingredients 18

3 to 4 medium beets, unpeeled, roots trimmed
3 tablespoons vegetable oil or clarified butter
3 medium onions, peeled and sliced (4 cups)
3 jalapenos, seeded and diced (2 tablespoons)
3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced (3 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon cumin seeds, freshly ground
2 tablespoons coriander seeds, freshly ground
1 teaspoon turmeric
3/4 teaspoon dried Thai chilies, freshly ground, or ground red pepper flakes
1/4 cup basmati rice, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 quarts vegetable or chicken broth
3/4 cup coconut milk
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
3/4 teaspoon garam masala
10 tablespoons yogurt or sour cream
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, picked and washed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Wrap the beets individually with aluminum foil and roast them in the oven until easily pierced by the tip of a paring knife, about 60 to 70 minutes. When the beets are cool enough to handle, trim the ends, and gently rub off their skins with a paper towel. Cut into 1/4-inch slices, place them in a food processor and pulse, scraping down the sides often, until they are finely chopped, but not completely pureed. Set aside. Place the vegetable oil or clarified butter in a 6 quart soup pot over medium heat and add the onions. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are wilted and translucent, but not browned, about 15 minutes. Add the jalapenos and ginger and continue to cook 5 more minutes. Follow with the ground cumin, coriander, turmeric and chilies and continue stirring until the spices are well cooked, about 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the basmati rice until well coated with the oil, season with the salt and pepper, and add the vegetable stock to the pot. Bring the stock to a boil and immediately reduce the heat until the soup just simmers. Allow the soup to cook, covered, until the rice is very tender, about 20 minutes. Using either a blender or an immersion blender process the soup until you have a rich puree. Whisk in the coconut milk and the chopped beets, and return the soup to the fire. Bring the soup slowly back to a boil and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper as required. Finish the soup with the honey, if desired, and the garam masala, and serve in warmed bowls with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream and a few sprigs of fresh cilantro.;

BEETROOT & RED PEPPER SOUP RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Beetroot & Red Pepper Soup Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by รก-178044

Number Of Ingredients 8

900 g fresh beetroots
2 red onions
2 red peppers (I used poblano)
5-6 cloves garlic
500 nl vegetable stock
olive oil
black pepper
yogurt or sour cream to top

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 180C (fan oven). Quarter the beets (keep the skins on), place on a foil lined baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Mix them around a little to make sure they are coated in oil then sprinkle with black pepper. Roast for around 40 minutes or until tender. About 20 minutes in to baking, add the two quartered red onions and the cloves of garlic. Leave the skins on the garlic as they tend to dry out and burn if peeled. Once they've been roasted the clove pops out of the skin really easily if you give it a little squeeze. Grill the red peppers under a medium heat until the skin starts to blacken - this is what adds a really tasty smokiness to the soup. Take out the seeds one the peppers are cool enough to handle. Put all of the veg and the garlic into a blender and pulse them a little bit until they start to break up. Add a bit of the veg stock if you've having a hard time getting them to blitz up. Turn up the blender so everything starts whizzing around and add the rest of the stock little by little.
