• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 6 cups beef broth

• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season the beef chuck with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Add the seasoned beef to the pot and brown it on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef and set aside.

In the same pot, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic, and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the chopped carrots and celery to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Add the diced beetroot and tomato paste, stirring to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes to integrate the flavors.

Step 7

Return the browned beef to the pot and pour in the beef broth. Add the bay leaf and bring the soup to a boil.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for about 1.5 hours, or until the beef is tender and the beetroot is cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the bay leaf. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 10

Stir in the chopped fresh dill just before serving. Serve hot and enjoy your dairy-free beef and beetroot soup.
