Recipe Essentials

  • Prep Time: 20 minutes

  • Cook Time: 90 minutes

  • Servings: 4

  • Skill Level: Intermediate

Ingredients

  • 2 Large beetroots, scrubbed and cut into chunks

  • 1/2 Shallot, peeled and quartered

  • 1 clove Garlic, peeled and quartered

  • 1/4 Lemon, juiced

  • 1/2 tsp Garam masala powder

  • 1 tsp Paprika

  • Salt & pepper, to taste

  • 1 tsp White wine vinegar

  • 1/2 cup Cannaoil (divided) (cannabis oil)

  • 1/2 Hot chili, halved lengthwise (optional, for heat)

Step-by-Step Directions

  1. Roast: Preheat your oven to 340°F (170°C). Place the beetroot chunks, shallot, garlic, and optional chili in a roasting dish. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with 1/4 cup of cannaoil and a squeeze of lemon juice.

  2. Bake: Cover the roasting dish tightly with foil and roast for 90 minutes, or until the beets are fork-tender.

  3. Blend: Transfer the roasted mixture into a food processor and blend until smooth.

  4. Emulsify: Add the remaining 1/4 cup of cannaoil, vinegar, remaining lemon juice, garam masala, and paprika. Blend again until fully combined and velvety.

  5. Season: Taste and adjust salt, pepper, or spices to your preference.

  6. Chill: Refrigerate overnight. This step is essential to allow the earthy flavors to meld and the infusion to settle. Serve cold.

Pro-Tips for the Best Beet Dip

  • The "Flavor Balance": The sweetness of roasted beetroot combined with the warmth of garam masala and paprika creates a complex base that perfectly masks the herbal notes of your cannaoil.

  • Storage: Keep this dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

  • Serving Suggestion: Serve in a shallow bowl with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs or toasted seeds for an Instagram-worthy presentation.
