Method
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ 425°F/ Gas 7. Drain the beetroot in a colander over the sink. Chop the beetroot into wedges.
- Add half the chopped beetroot, the Tenderstem broccoli and the diced butternut squash to a tray. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt. Put the tray in the oven and cook for an initial 10-15 min.
- While the vegetables are roasting, rinse the freekeh, then add it to a pot with plenty of cold water and bring to the boil over a high heat. Cook for 20-25 min or until tender but with a bite, then drain and return to the pot.
- Meanwhile, drain and rinse the chickpeas. Cut the lemon in half. Add the remaining chopped beetroot, half of the drained chickpeas, the tahini and the juice of 1/2 lemon to a food processor. Add 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp water and a generous pinch of salt and blitz until smooth – this is your beetroot hummus.
- Add the remaining chickpeas to the tray with the roasting veg. Sprinkle over the ground cumin and give everything a good mix up. Return the tray to the oven for a further 10-15 min or until everything is cooked through and golden.
- Add the rocket to a large bowl with 1/2 tbsp of olive oil and give it a gentle mix up.
- Cut the remaining lemon into wedges.
- Serve the beetroot hummus with the freekeh, dressed rocket and roasted vegetables to the side. Garnish with the nigella seeds and a lemon wedge. Squeeze the juice of the lemon wedge all over and enjoy!
