Best 6 Beet Chips With Curried Sour Cream Recipes

BEET CHIPS WITH CURRIED SOUR CREAM

Steps:

• Make chips:
• Peel beets with a vegetable peeler, then slice paper-thin with slicer, using stems as handles.
• Bring water and sugar to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Add beets, then remove pan from heat and let stand15 minutes. Drain beets in a colander, discarding liquid, then let stand in colander 15 minutes more.
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 225°F.
• Line a shallow baking pan with nonstick liner, then arrange beet slices snugly in 1 layer (it's not necessary to use any partial or broken slices) and season with salt and pepper. Bake beets until dry, about 1 hour. Immediately transfer chips to a rack to cool (chips will crisp as they cool).
• Make curried cream while beets bake:
• Cook shallot in oil in a small skillet over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in curry powder and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
• Stir shallot into sour cream in a bowl along with chives, salt, and pepper. Serve curried cream with beet chips.

Add vinegar and sugar, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then pour soup through a sieve lined with a dampened paper towel or cheesecloth into a large bowl, discarding solids (you will have about 7 cups broth; if you have less, add enough water to bring total to 7 cups).
• While vegetables cook, peel beets and coarsely grate using large holes of a box grater.
• Slowly whisk 1 cup broth into sour cream in a bowl until blended, then add to soup along with grated beets, chives, and chopped dill. Cool soup completely, uncovered, then chill, covered, until cold, at least 2 hours. Season with salt and pepper before serving.
