Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Trim the beets. Wrap them in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Place the pan in the oven and roast the beets for about 50 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a sharp paring knife.
- Remove the beets from the oven and allow them to cool until you can handle them. Using disposable gloves, rub or peel the skins off of the cooked beets. Discard the skins.
- Roughly chop the beets. Transfer them to the bowl of a food processor. Add the olive oil, lemon juice, cilantro, and cumin. Blend until smooth, about 1-1/2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.

- Serve the dip with your favorite Turkish dishes or mezze platter.
