1: Pre-heat your oven/airfryer to 200 degrees Celsius. On a baking tray, season your beetroot with salt, pepper, and olive oil. Cover with foil and roast for 30 minutes, or until soft and tender. 2: Meanwhile, slice the onion and sauté it in a frying pan over medium heat with a splash of olive oil until caramelised (10-15 minutes). 3: Add the beans and half of their liquor, stirring well. Lower the heat and allow to cook for a further 5-10 minutes. 4: Remove the skins from the beetroot, place in a blender, and squeeze out the roasted garlic cloves. Add the nutritional yeast, a splash of olive oil, and the remaining bean liquor. Blend until smooth, season to taste with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired. 5: Pour the beetroot mixture into the beans and mix well. Check for seasoning and cook for a further couple of minutes. 6: To serve, toast some bread, then spoon the beans into bowls. Top with crumbled feta, chopped fresh parsley, lemon zest, and olive oil. Enjoy!
