Carrot-Beetroot Soup


Soup is something which all of us desire to have specially in winters or during cough/cold.It is a very healthy option even for babies.My son loved it for the taste and colour, and I loved it since he had such a nutritious meal with no fuss :P

Ingredients-
carrot (1medium)
beetroot (1/2)
onion (1small)
garlic (1-2cloves)
milk (2tbpsn)
salt
butter
oil

Method-
Wash the carrot and beetroot thoroughly.
Peel the skin and chop them roughly.
Boil/pressure cook them till soft.Do not throw the water.
Chop the onion and garlic finely.
Heat butter in a non-stick pan.Add few drops of oil so that the butter does not burn.
Put in the chopped onion and garlic.
Saute it for about 2min and turn off the gas.
Let it cool, then add it to the boiled carrot and beet and grind to a paste in a mixi.
Now put the paste in the same pan and add the water(in which carrot and beetroot were boiled).
Add salt as per taste.I did not add any pepper since it was for my toddler.
Once it comes to a boil turn off the gas and add few drops of milk.
Serve the delicious soup hot :-)
