Ingredients
- 350g of baby beetroot, cleaned and tops cut off
- 200g of Danish Feta
- 1 large clove of garlic
- 1 tsp of thyme leaves, chopped
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Step 2
Cut the tops off the beetroot and wrap in foil with the garlic. Place in a baking tray and bake in the oven until the beetroot become soft.
Step 3
Peel the beetroot and then chop into small cubes and process in a food processor, along with the garlic until it forms a smooth purée. Then strain over a bowl in a strainer lined with paper towel to remove the juice. You might like to set this aside for an hour or two.
Step 4
Purée the Danish Feta until smooth before adding the beetroot purée and the chopped thyme leaves. Process until combined. Chill before serving.
