Ingredients
  

  • 2 beets
  • 1 onion
  • 2-3 garlic
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2-3 rosemary
  • 3-4 basil
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Peel and chop up your beets and onions and spread them out on the lined baking sheet with the garlic and rosemary. Drizzle a bit of olive oil over them and sprinkle some crushed black pepper.
  • Toss well and follow it up with a sprinkle of salt. Mix well again.
  • Pop this in the oven and bake for 35-60 minutes, or until the veggies are golden brown and caramelized.
  • Allow these to cool down, transfer to a blender jar and blend until you get a smooth paste.

Notes

  • Chop up the beets into equal sized chunks to ensure even cooking. This is important, regardless of whether you're roasting, pressure cooking or boiling the beets.
  • Make sure you toss them in olive oil before you roast them. This gets them nice and crispy and offers a beautiful caramelization too.
  • To adjust the texture and consistency of the puree, start with less water while blitzing it, and add more if needed.
