Ingredients

4 servings

For the beet hummus

1 medium beet (about 6 oz), scrubbed
1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
3 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 small clove garlic
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp salt
2–3 tbsp cold water, as needed

For serving

1 large english cucumber, sliced into ¼-inch rounds
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
1 pinch flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Place the beet on a sheet of aluminum foil, drizzle with a little olive oil, and wrap tightly. Set on a baking sheet and roast for 35–40 minutes, until a knife slides through the center with no resistance.
2
Remove the beet from the oven and let it rest, still wrapped, for 10 minutes. Unwrap and, using a paper towel, rub the skin off under cool running water. Cut the beet into rough chunks.
