🧂 सामग्री
- 500 g Beetroots
- 1 liter Buttermilk or Kefir(Full-fat is recommended for richness.)
- 2 medium Cucumbers

👨🍳 निर्देश

Prepare the beetroots: Wash the beetroots thoroughly. You can either boil them until tender (about 45-60 minutes depending on size) or roast them (wrapped in foil at 200°C/400°F for 45-60 minutes). Once cooked, let them cool slightly, then peel and grate them finely. The beetroots should be fork-tender when pierced.
⏱️ 60 minutes (approx. for cooking) - 2
Combine liquids and beets: In a large bowl or pot, combine the grated beetroots with the buttermilk or kefir. Stir well to incorporate. The mixture should start turning a vibrant pink.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Add vegetables and herbs: Stir in the finely diced cucumbers and most of the chopped fresh dill (reserve some for garnish). Add the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed – it should be tangy and well-seasoned.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Chill thoroughly: Cover the soup and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably longer, to allow the flavors to meld and the soup to become very cold. The colder, the better.
⏱️ 2 hours (minimum) - 5
Serve: Ladle the chilled soup into bowls. Garnish each serving with a quartered or chopped hard-boiled egg and a sprinkle of the reserved fresh dill. Serve immediately.
