600g raw beetroot (peeled and cut into small cubes)

1/2 red onion (peeled and sliced)

3 large tomatoes (peeled and chopped)

1 large orange

Approximately 500ml water

1tsp Olive oil

Salt and pepper

1. Coat a large saucepan with little bit of oil. Add the onion and gently fry for 5 minutes
2. Add the beetroot. Cover the saucepan with a lid and gently fry for 20 minutes.
3. Add water and tomatoes, then bring to boil. Season with salt and pepper and simmer for about 30 minutes until the beetroot is tender.
4. Allow to cool slightly and blend into a food processor (not for too long if you prefer your soup to be a little bit chunky).
5. Zest the orange into the soup and squeeze in the juice.
6. Re-heat, taste and if necessary season the soup again. Finally serve warm.
