BEETROOT DIP / BEET DIP

Beetroot Dip / Beet Dip image

This was given to me by an Egyptian friend who said it's a family recipe. I like the fact it's doesn't contain dairy and nuts so it was perfect for Menu #24612 because we had a few guest who are lactose intolerant and have an allergic to nuts. You can chill the dip until it's needed. It will keep for two days in the refrigerator but the flavour will enhance

Mutabbal Shamandar (Beet-Tahini Dip) image

Provided by Reem Assil

Yield Makes 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

4 red beets (about 2 pounds)
2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
3 tsp. kosher salt, plus more as needed
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 serrano chile, stems, seeds, and veins removed, halved lengthwise
¼ cup lemon juice (from about 2 lemons), plus more as needed
½ tsp. cumin seeds, toasted, or ¼ tsp. ground cumin
½ cup tahini, plus more as needed
1 Tbsp. coarsely chopped herbs, such as cilantro, dill, or fennel fronds for garnish

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a medium bowl, coat the beets in the oil and 1 teaspoon of the salt. Tear four lengths of aluminum foil and tightly wrap each beet individually in the foil. Roast the beets in the oven for about 1 hour, until caramelized and tender (a knife or cake tester should go through them with little or no resistance). Remove the beets from the oven and cool in the foil.
For this next step, I save old towels I don't mind staining. When cool enough to handle, remove the beets from the foil, wrap each beet in a towel, and rub the peels away.
Coarsely chop the beets and place them in a food processor or blender. Add the garlic, chile, lemon juice, cumin, and the remaining 2 teaspoons salt and blend for about 5 minutes, until creamy and smooth. Slowly drizzle in the tahini and continue blending until the tahini is fully incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Adjust the salt and lemon juice to taste. If you want a thicker spread, blend in more tahini, 1 tablespoon at a time.
When ready to serve, scoop the mixture onto a serving plate, drizzle it with the oil, and garnish it with the herbs.

Tips:

Choose fresh, firm beets for the best flavor and texture.
Roasting the beets intensifies their sweetness and flavor.
Be sure to peel the beets before roasting, as the skin can be tough and bitter.
If you don't have time to roast the beets, you can boil them instead. Just be sure to drain them well before using.
Use a food processor or blender to make the dip smooth and creamy.
Taste the dip and adjust the seasonings to your liking.
Serve the dip with pita chips, crackers, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This beetroot and cumin dip is a delicious and healthy appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful dip, give this recipe a try.
