Ingredients
- 3 medium beetroot
- 0.25 cup coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 1 large garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Wash the beetroot thoroughly and trim any excess greens, leaving about an inch of stalk.
Step 3
Wrap each beetroot individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet.
Step 4
Roast the beetroots in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 5
Once roasted, allow the beetroots to cool slightly, then peel off the skin using your hands; it should slide off easily.
Step 6
Roughly chop the peeled beetroots and transfer them to a food processor.
Step 7
Add the coconut milk, fresh lemon juice, tahini, garlic clove, olive oil, sea salt, cumin, and black pepper to the food processor with the beetroots.
Step 8
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary to ensure everything is well-combined.
Step 9
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 10
Transfer the beetroot dip to a serving bowl and garnish with fresh parsley.
Step 11
Serve immediately with your choice of Paleo-friendly dippers like vegetable sticks or paleo crackers, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
