Recipe Introduction
Posted by: rosiewny***********Most recipes I've seen require you to cook the beets
before
removing the tough outer skins, but it's so messy
peeling all those hot --red--beets. I discovered that
if you
peel them like carrots before roasting it's so much
easier!
List of Ingredients
12 beets
3 tablespoons good olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, minced
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar
Juice of 1 large orange
Recipe
Remove the tops and the roots of the beets and peel
each one with
a vegetable peeler. Cut the beets in 1 1/2-inch chunks.
(Small
beets can be halved, medium ones cut in quarters, and
large beets
cut in eighths.)
Place the cut beets on a baking sheet and toss with the
olive
oil, thyme leaves, salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40
minutes,
turning once or twice with a spatula, until the beets
are tender,
Remove from the oven and immediately toss with the
vinegar and
orange juice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve
warm.
Yield: serves 6
