Instructions

Step 1

Set a large soup pot over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and chopped onions and cook until the onions start to brown and become translucent, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

Add the beets, water / vegetable stock, apple cider vinegar, garlic, ginger, ground coriander, ground cumin, black pepper and salt. Cover the pot and bring to a low boil until the beets are fork tender, 10-15 minutes. Cut off the heat and add the coconut milk and lime juice. Use an immersion blender on high to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. OR blend the soup in batches in a high powered blender until smooth. Taste and adjust salt/pepper as you like.

Step 3

To serve, add the soup to your bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro, pink peppercorns, more hemp hearts and a drizzle of coconut milk. I also added blue cornflowers to mine, purely for aesthetic reasons. Serve hot with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over top as you like. This soup is great with a side of PKU rice or ghee-roasted cauliflower pieces!
