Garlic Roasted Beets are simple, delicious and healthful--and a great way to finish up last fall's harvest of beets!
Share:
Ingredients
- 1/2 quart of beets 1 - 1 /2 lbs
- 1 bulb garlic
- 2 T extra virgin olive oil + extra 1 1/2 T for roasting
- 1 T good vinegar e.g. balsamic, red wine
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/4 t pepper
Instructions
- Wash beets and toss in 1 T olive oil. Place in roasting pan and set in 400 F oven.
- Slice the stem end off a bulb of garlic. Drizzle the cut end with 1/2 T olive oil and wrap the bulb in aluminum foil. After the beets have been in the oven for 1/2 hour, add the wrapped garlic to the roasting pan.
- When beets are tender (about 1 hour), remove them and the garlic from the oven. When beets are just cool enough to handle, peel, then dice them and set aside.
- Squeeze the garlic from the bulb and put in a small bowl. Mash thoroughly with a fork (see note), then add 2 T olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, mixing well.
- Combine diced beets and garlic mixture and serve hot or cold. Garnish with a sprig of fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
- The garlic is much easier to mash if you do it before adding the vinegar and oil.
