This fresh Greek-inspired soup comes together in minutes. Buttermilk gives it a soupy consistency without changing the yogurt's flavor.
How to Make It
Step 1
Halve, pit, and peel avocados and set aside 1 half. Coarsely chop remaining avocados. In a blender, whirl buttermilk, yogurt, chopped avocados, dill, chopped mint, garlic, and chile until smooth.
Step 2
Pour soup into a bowl. If you'd like it thinner, stir in about 1/4 cup cold water. Stir in 1 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice and 1 tsp. salt. Chill until very cold, 30 minutes. "It's supposed to be refreshing, like chilled borscht or gazpacho," Fletcher says.
Step 3
Coarsely shred radishes. Cut reserved half avocado into small dice and sprinkle with a little salt and lemon juice.
Step 4
Taste soup and add more lemon juice or salt if you like. Ladle into bowls. Place a tuft of radishes and a small spoonful of avocado in center of each serving. Grate a little feta over soup and top with mint leaves. Serve immediately (toppings will sink).
