Barbie Pasta from Roasted Beetroot

INSTRUCTIONS

• 1
  Preheat the oven to 185 °C and prepare a small baking dish. Peel the raw beetroot and cut it into smaller pieces. Transfer them to aluminum foil, add a tablespoon of oil, mix, and wrap tightly. Cut off the top of the garlic bulb so that all the cloves are visible, drizzle with a tablespoon of oil, and wrap it in aluminum foil as well.
• 2
  Transfer both packages to the baking dish and place in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes to an hour or until the beetroot is completely soft. Let the roasted beetroot and garlic cool slightly and bring salted water to a boil for the pasta.
• 3
  Once the water is boiling, add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions. Transfer the roasted softened beetroot to a blender along with the feta, parsley, a ladle of pasta water, and the squeezed garlic cloves. Salt, pepper, and blend into a smooth pink sauce. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more pasta water.
