Vegan Beetroot 'Steaks'

Scrub the beetroots clean and cut in half. Sprinkle with the olive oil and freshly ground black pepper. Place them on a lined baking tray with the cut side down and cook them in a 200C (gas mark 6) for around 50 - 55 minutes.

Make a basil oil by stripping the basil leaves off the stalks (keep!) from 1/3 of the basil and adding them to 5 tbsp olive oil and mix together using a blender, so that you have a vibrant green oil. This is used to drizzle over the finished dish.

Peel and slice the garlic. Gently heat the soya cream in a small sauce pan and add the sliced garlic and the rest of the basil + stalks. Turn off the heat and puree into a smooth sauce with a blender. Season with salt and pepper.

Drizzle the sauce over a large serving plate and position the cooked beetroot slices on top. Drizzle with the green basil oil and serve immediately.
