Beetroot And Apple Soup With Feta And Dill

Beetroot And Apple Soup With Feta And Dill

By OcadoLifePublished on 09 October 2022This is a vibrant version of the Eastern European soup borscht. Packed full of flavour and earthy tones, it can be served hot or cold. This recipe only takes 30 minutes to whip up thanks to the pre-cooked beetroot. If you have raw beetroot to use up though, simply peel and dice 650g of it and gently simmer the soup for 40-45 mins until the beet is tender.
