Golden Beet Soup

This vibrant golden beet soup is a refreshing alternative to traditional red beetroot recipes, offering a more delicate, earthy sweetness that pairs beautifully with citrus. The addition of fresh ginger and lemon zest brings a bright, aromatic lift to the root vegetables, while the margarine ensures a silky texture that remains entirely dairy-free. By using the reserved beet tops to create a striking emerald drizzle, this dish minimises food waste and creates a restaurant-quality finish at home.

As a nutritious dairy-free starter or a light lunch, this heart-healthy soup is both comforting and sophisticated. The recipe is also conveniently make-ahead friendly, as the flavours develop beautifully when chilled overnight. Simply reheat both components gently before serving to maintain the vivid contrast between the golden base and the vibrant green herb-like oil.
