    This was so warming and delicious! It takes a long time on the stove but isn't much work. It makes a huge pot (much more than four servings) and I cannot wait to eat leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

    Loved this soup. Simple but tasty and filling.

    I made a vegetarian version of this soup by replacing the beef stock with homemade veggie stock (with onions, mushrooms for the "meatiness" and kombu for the umami) and adding a big pat of butter to the soup (to replace the beef fat), keeping the rest of the recipe as is. It was still amazing and well worth the work of chopping, grating and matchsticking all the veggies.

    Lovely soup. I used only 300g meat for the stock and it was delicious still. I had a thought as I was making it, that perhaps, putting so much in , that I wouldn’t be able to taste the different components later. That’s not the case- it all comes together perfectly, the kidney beans are essential adding a textural aspect. The beef is melt in the mouth, the beetroot sweet and tender, the peppers delicious. I’ll make this again, hopefully with the pampushky as she recommends
