How to Make Beetroot And Cumin Dip

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. Scrub 500g of beetroot thoroughly, dry them, and wrap individually in aluminum foil.
  3. Roast for approximately 1 hour, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Check at the 45-minute mark.
  4. Once cool enough to handle, peel the beetroot.
  5. Place the peeled beetroot in a food processor along with 2 cloves garlic, 1 tbsp cumin seeds, 1/2 tsp ground coriander, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional), 100ml Greek yogurt, and the juice of 1/2 a lemon.
  6. Process until finely combined.
  7. With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in 50ml of olive oil until a thick, smooth puree forms.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add salt and pepper to your liking.
  9. Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley, if desired.
