- Cook beetroot in a pot of water until fork-soft. When cooked, drain and cool down. Peel the skin off, slice the cooked beetroot and place into a food processor.
- To the food processor, add cooked chickpeas. I use canned, pre-cooked. Finely chopped garlic, lemon, cummin, salt, cayenne pepper, tahini and a little olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy, then slowly add some more olive oil and mix again.
- Serve the beetroot hummus on a plate, and top with parsley, mint, roasted sunflower seeds and pomegranate seeds. Pour over some good olive oil right before serving.
