RUSSIAN BEETROOT SOUP
)
Borscht is a traditional Ukrainian beetroot soup, which tastes amazing. There are many ways to make it. This is a vegetarian version and has no meat in it, but feel free to add some meat if you like. This recipe makes a fairly large pot, approximately 8-10 servings.

My mother used to make this hearty soup at least once a week. You can have this for dinner or lunch. The passion for this hearty soup made from beets cuts across all classes and economic levels in Russia as well as in neighbouring countries in Eastern and Central Europe. I love this beet soup, it is so healthy, so delicious and the colour just makes you smile. It also helps you with your digestive system
