Beetroot, celeriac and lentil soup
Background
This beetroot, celeriac and lentil soup is an earthy, healthy and hearty soup, perfect on cold days or as an immune-booster. Serve it with wholesome bread. If you use less stock  you’ll get a thick sauce that is perfect for pasta, pie filling or bolognese/stew/ragu sauces.
Ingredients
- 1 red onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 medium beetroots
- 2 carrots
- 1 small celeriac
- 1 tsp fennel seeds
- 350 ml passata
- 500 ml vegetable stock (approx.)
- ½ cup red lentils
- 1 handful dill
Instructions
- Peel and chop the onion and garlic.
- Peel the carrot, beetroot and celeriac, then cut them into smallish chunks.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan, then sauté the onion and garlic for 5 minutes.
- Add the chopped vegetables, red lentils and fennel seeds, stir for a minute, then add the passata and stock.
- Bring to the boil and cook for 25-30 minutes. If it’s too thick, add more stock.
- When the vegetables are tender, turn off the heat. Add the dill, then process the soup until you get a smooth or textured consistency. You might need more stock for a thinner soup.
