We had so many beets and with the tender fresh dill as well as our reserved beans from the garden harvest this went down a treat for the theme of this week … I crushed some dill seed and sauted with the onion and leek and I also made my own stock. I am so pleased with how it turned out. thank you for the inspiration/

This was really easy to make and is tasty and healthy too! I used the dill in the squeezy tubes from the supermarket fridge as I didn’t have any fresh dill and the fresh dill flavour still came through. Thanks for the recipe!
