Delicious is an understatement. This soup is silky, creamy and has a punchy flavour from the beetroot. Feel free to add your choice of bean to bump up the protein.

Instructions
Step 1
Peel and dice the potato. Place into a saucepan of water (enough to cover the potato) and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat and drain.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes or until translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for a further minute. Remove from heat.
Step 3
Drain beetroot. Place beetroot, potatoes, onion, garlic and all other ingredients (except the chickpeas) into a food processor and process until smooth.
Step 4
Drain and rinse chickpeas. Heat a large saucepan or pot over high heat and pour in the soup. Once boiling, reduce heat to simmer, add the chickpeas and cook for a further 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat. The texture should be thick and silky. Cook over heat for longer if needed to thicken.
Step 5
Serve hot and optionally garnish with coconut cream, parsley, sesame seeds and olive oil. Enjoy! Store leftovers in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
