Grilled tomato and Beetroot Soup


"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the Autumn tree." - Emily Bronte

I am loving the beautiful and colorful fall here. I have added some beautiful red and orange leaves in my below pics to bring fall into my pics.. :)

Here is an easy warn soup made with beetroot and grilled tomatoes!






Ingredients:
  1. Fire grilled tomatoes - 1 can,~ 400gm
  2. Sliced Beetroot - 1 can,~ 400 gm
  3. Chicken broth - 2 cups
  4. Garlic - 1 clove
  5. Salt to taste
  6. Pepper to taste
  7. Butter - 1 tsp

Note:
  • You may grill fresh tomatoes and use it in soup instead of canned tomatoes
  • You may use fresh beetroot slices, but need to make sure it is cooked well before bending it in the blender 


Method:
  1. Heat butter in a pan and saute chopped garlic in it
  2. Add tomatoes, beetroot and chicken broth to it and cook it for 30-40 minutes in medium-low flame
  3. Add water to it if the soup is too thick and switch off the flame
  4. Blend the above mixture in a blender once it is in room temperature
  5. Heat the soup again and add salt and pepper to taste

Serve the soup warm.. It is a mild tasting soup without too many strong flavors in it. You can get the roasted tomato taste and sweetness from beetroot..

  1. Your soup is so pretty - I love fire-roasted tomatoes but I am not a big fan of beetroot. An interesting combination and I wish I could try it. Guess I will just have to make some! Thanks for bringing your soup to Fiesta Friday :)
