Beetroot soup

Beetroot is reddish purple in colour and has many benefits. I simply adore the reddish purple colour of this vegetable. Beetroot is high in B Vitamin folate, good for pregnancy. It can also reduce cholesterol levels. We used to make beetroot soup. You can also make beetroot salad, eaten raw with a squeeze of lemon juice. I find that it tasted like radish or (Sengkuang).
