How to Make Beet Puree
- Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until softened and golden brown.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in the diced beets, red wine vinegar, and tomato paste.
- Cook gently for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beets are tender and the mixture has thickened and caramelized slightly.
- (Optional) At this point, you can taste and adjust seasoning. If you prefer a chunkier puree, serve as is.
- If you prefer a smoother puree, carefully pour in the vegetable broth and heavy cream. Stir to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
