    Beetroot Pasta is really a very quick recipe that even before the pasta gets cooked the beetroot sauce gets ready, yes you heard it right.

    Beetroot Pasta was new to me until I saw it in Nadiyas cooking show in Netflix. It was the quickest pasta recipe I had ever seen so I thought should give this a try. I did tweak the recipe a bit to suit our taste still it turned out so delicious that mittu wanted me to make this often.

    My friend recommended so many cooking shows, chefs etc but I had not been able to relate myself to their cooking style or addicted to any cooking show or international celebrity. But Nadiya’s is the only cooking show that I finished almost all episodes in Netflix at one go the first time I saw itself. I browsed and browsed reading abt her, then insta added on to know more. Obviously a big fan of her cooking but what I love the most is her simplicity and attitude towards life and cooking. More than a cook, I love her for the person she is.❤️

    Hubby heard the shock of his life when I said I want to meet her which is near to impossible but still dreams are dreams right?! Yes have become such a crazy fan of her and she will be my inspiration now and for years to come!

    About Beetroot Pasta

    This is a fairly simple beginner recipe. To begin with first cook pasta along with salt, oil and water. Cook it until its soft but not mushy. I used durum wheat pasta so it takes a little longer than the usual pasta cooking time. Pressure cook beets for 3-4 whistles with very little water. Cool down then blend it along with garlic, red chillies, olive oil and required salt. Add cooked water and blend it to a smooth puree. Add it to cooked pasta mix well. While serving add grated cheese, spring onion along with lemon juice, mixed herbs or oregano. Your beetroot pasta is ready!

    Variations

    • The orginal recipe used feta cheese but I used mozarella cheese.
    • Also she had used dill leaves, and I replaced it with homegrown spring onion.
    • Herbs and seasoning is your choice, adjust according to your taste.
    • You can use any pasta variety you have in hand.
    • You can even add more of ginger and garlic while grinding.
    • Also add roasted tomatoes and grind it along with beets to get a more tangy flavour.

    Beetroot Pasta is

    • Wholesome
    • Nutritious
    • Healthy and
    • Tempting

    Serving and Storage

    • The pasta by itself is slightly sweet and bland so herbs and seasoning while serving takes it to another level. So I would suggest to serve it with all the seasoning mentioned for a delicious combo.
    • I would recommend to consume it fresh. Incase you want to store, make the sauce seperately store in fridge then mix it with pasta while serving.
