A quick, delicious, glorious pink Persian Beetroot and Yoghurt Borani made with cooked beetroot, greek style yoghurt, tahini and flavoured with onion, garlic and salt. Serve with Persian flatbread sangak or Barbari as part of a Mezze or even simply as a dip with sourdough bread or crackers!

This creamy Persian beetroot borani dip gets its flavours from the natural sweetness of beets, salted onions, garlic and fresh dill. It's is smooth, delicious, vegetarian and relatively low in carbs.

I fell in love with this dish on my trip to Turkey and since then it. . .
