Directions
-
Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion, about 5 min. until starting to soften. Add cabbage, apple and salt. Cook 5 min. until cabbage is softened. Stir in beets and broth; bring to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, about 25 min. until beets are very tender.
-
Using a hand-blender, purée until almost smooth (leaving some texture). Stir in lemon zest and lemon juice. Serve in soup bowls, garnished with dollop of yogourt and sprinkle of dill.
