Beetroots don’t lose antioxidant activity when cooked, which is handy considering they’re so much more palatable that way! Plus, it gives dishes like this one the most beautiful pink colour.
Put all the ingredients into a food processor in the order shown.
Blend until smooth.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
TIP This tastes great with my black bean burger on page 227!
