INSTRUCTIONS
Preparing the Roasted Beetroots:
- Preheat your Beko Air Fryer to 200°C.
- Peel the beetroots using a paring knife. If very large, cut them into quarters. Place in your Beko Air Fryer, drizzle with a little olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Roast for 45 minutes to 2 hours (depending on beet size). They're done when a fork glides out smoothly when inserted into the beet.
- Remove from the Beko Air Fryer and allow to cool to room temperature (about thirty minutes).
Making the Mutabbal Shamandar:
- In the Beko Starlight Blender, combine lemon juice and garlic. Pulse until mostly combined. Let the garlic sit in the lemon for about 10 minutes, then add tahini. Blend thoroughly, and finally, incorporate olive oil.
- Once blended, add beets and pulse to the desired consistency (chunky or smooth according to preference). Season with salt and pepper, blend, and check the taste. Adjust salt and pepper as needed.
- Garnish with more olive oil. Optionally, add pomegranate arils or fresh herbs for extra flavor.
