METHOD
Roughly chop the onions and sweat off with a nob of butter for a couple of minutes until soft but not coloured. Add the crushed garlic clove and thyme. Once infused add the vegetable stock and bring to the boil.

Add the cooked beetroot and boil for a further 2 to 3 minutes as you don’t want to lose the colour.

Remove from the heat and liquidise until smooth, check for seasoning.

Mix the honey and crème fraîche together (to taste) then simply spoon on top of your soup when serving… simple but delicious.
