Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Creamy Beetroot Feta Pasta
- Wash, peel, and chop the beetroots into small cubes. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté garlic until fragrant. Add chopped beets and sauté for 1–2 minutes. Pour in water, cover, and simmer for 13–15 minutes until fork-tender.
- While the beets simmer, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions, usually 8–10 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
- Transfer cooked beets to a blender along with sautéed garlic, feta, lemon juice, and reserved pasta water. Blend until smooth, adjusting thickness with more water if necessary.
- Pour the beetroot sauce over the cooked pasta and toss gently until fully coated. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Serve topped with crumbled feta and fresh herbs for enhanced flavor and presentation.
