Beet Ginger And Coconut Milk Soup Recipes

COCONUT, BEET, AND GINGER SOUP

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, heat the ghee or oil. Add the ginger, shallot, rosemary, garlic, and sea salt and sweat the mixture for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the white wine and stir to deglaze the pan. Simmer for 5 minutes to cook off the alcohol. Add the beets, coconut milk, bone broth, and white wine vinegar, cover, and let simmer for 45 minutes.
• Prepare a bowl of ice water.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove the beets from the pot and transfer to the ice bath to cool. Once the beets are cool to the touch, use your hands or a paper towel to remove the skins. Discard the skins and roughly chop the beets. Return the beets to the pot and simmer the mixture for 10 minutes more.
• Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture right in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Season with additional sea salt to taste if needed. Serve immediately, garnished with a couple of orange segments and a bit of the zest.
• Do Ahead
• The soup can be refrigerated for up to 1 week, or frozen for up to 6 months.

BEET-AND-GINGER SOUP WITH CUCUMBER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the beets in a bowl and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of oil and season with salt. Toss to coat. Place the beets on half of a large sheet of aluminum foil and fold over to make a pouch. Seal tightly. Place in the oven and roast until a fork easily pierces the beets, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Peel off skin and cut beets in quarters.
• In a soup pot, warm the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the leek and cook until it begins to soften, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger; cook 2 minutes more. Season lightly with salt. Add the beets, chicken broth and 3 cups of water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
• Transfer the soup in batches to a food processor and process until smooth. Then return the soup to the pot and place over medium heat. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, the lemon juice to taste and more ginger if you wish. Just before serving (the soup should not be served too hot; it could even be served chilled or at room temperature), add the cucumber to the soup and stir. Then ladle into bowls and serve immediately. You may serve this with a dollop of crème fraîche.
