Ingredients
- 2 bunches Young beets with greens
- 2 Potatoes
- 1 Carrots
- 6 cups Vegetable stock
- 1/2 cup Sour cream
- 2 Eggs
- 1/4 cup Dill
- 1/2 Lemon
Steps
- Separate the beet greens from the roots; chop the greens and dice the roots.
- Simmer the roots, potatoes, and carrot in the stock 15 minutes until tender.
- Add the chopped greens and stems; cook 5 minutes until just wilted and vivid.
- Season with salt and lemon juice; botwinka should be fresh and lightly sour.
- Swirl in the sour cream off the heat for a blushing, silky broth.
