Beetroot, Goji and Carrot Soup

Why people make this soup

Beetroot leaves are genuinely worth eating — rich in folate, vitamin C and fibre, and traditionally valued for clearing the liver, “cleaning” the blood and supporting regular bowel movements. When you can find beetroot with its greens and stems still attached, use both. This beetroot, goji and carrot soup is a clean, everyday vegetable soup traditionally enjoyed to support the liver and eyes, brighten the complexion and keep things moving.

Method

1. Wash the beetroot stems and leaves and cut into segments.
2. Peel the carrot and cut into chunks; husk the corn and cut into segments; rinse the goji.
3. Put everything in a pot with 2.4 L of water and simmer down to 1.2 L. Drink the soup and eat the ingredients.
