Beet Mutabbal

8 ingredients
3 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beets (2-3 medium sized)
  • 2 tablespoons tahini paste
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • juice from one lemon
  • 2-3 tablespoons EVOO
  • salt
  • pepper
  • pita bread, cut into wedges

Directions

  1. 1
    Boil the beets (I usually do them like potatoes, if they're large- cut into chunks and boil until they can be easily stabbed with a fork). Drain off water, cool for a few minutes, then peel.
  2. 2
    Put the beet chunks in a food processor and pulse until you have a coarse puree. Drain off excess water.
  3. 3
    Add tahini, crushed garlic, lemon juice, one Tbsp of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Check flavors and adjust seasoning. Spread in a shallow bowl and drizzle with remaining oil. Enjoy!
