Instructions

Cook beets by boiling or roasting until tender. To boil beets, cut them into quarters, place them in a saucepan with water, bring to a boil, then simmer until tender for 30-45 minutes. Check for tenderness by piercing them with a fork. To roast beets, wrap each beet in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil, place on a baking sheet, and roast in the oven at 400F (200C) for 45-60 minutes. Check for tenderness by piercing them with a fork.
In a food processor, blend cooked beets, chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, sesame oil, and salt until smooth. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water or olive oil if too thick.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
