Important Notes
Using red onion instead of brown onion complements the deep color of the beetroots.
Keep the potato skins on if they are well-washed, as they contain a lot of flavor.
Wearing gloves while peeling and grating beetroots is highly recommended to prevent staining your hands.
Greek yogurt or sour cream adds a wonderful creamy contrast to the earthy soup.
