Ingredients
- 3 medium beetroots
- 2 red onions
- 1 cauliflower
- 3 tomatoes, chopped
- 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- ½ teaspoon of chilli flakes
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 2 Tbsps of oil
- 1 bay leaf
- 750 ml vegetable stock
- 1 tin of chickpeas
- 1 small handful fresh parsley, dill or coriander leaves
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- To serve: feat or similar plant-based alternative
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Cut the cauliflower into florets.
- Peel and cut the onion and beetroot into slim wedges.
- Put them in a baking tin together with the cauliflower florets and tomatoes. Tuck the garlic cloves (unpeeled) between the vegetables.
- Scatter the spices on top, add the bay leaf drizzle with oil, then season with salt & pepper. Toss gently.
- Pour over a glass of water, then cover the dish with foil.
- Roast in the oven for about 45 minutes, until tender. Take off the foil, add the drained chickpeas and put the dish back in the oven for 5 minutes.
- When the roasted vegetables are cooked through, transfer them to a saucepan, together with any cooking jus. Discard the skin of the garlic and the bay leaf. Add the stock and bring to the boil.
- Turn off the heat and add the parsley or dill.
- Using a stick blender or liquidiser, whiz the mixture into a slightly textured soup. Add more stock if you think it’s too thick.
- Warm it up if necessary.
- Serve with feta or plant based soft cheese crumbled on top.
