Notes
- There is no need to peel the beetroot before slicing it into wedges, it's way too much of a messy job if you ask me. Simply wash it really well with cold water, and slice it into wedges.
- If the skin is nicely cleaned, once the beets are roasted, there is no need to remove the skin, it's perfectly tender and safe to eat. You can, by all means, remove it, but it's entirely up to you.
