Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium fresh beetroots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Trim the leaves and roots from the beetroots, then wash them thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt.
Using a vegetable peeler, peel the skin off the beetroots. Slice them into wedges or cubes, about 1/2-inch thick, ensuring even pieces for uniform cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the beetroot pieces with olive oil, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss until the beetroots are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the seasoned beetroot pieces in a single layer on the sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 40-45 minutes, or until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork and have developed a slightly caramelized exterior.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm as a side dish, or let cool completely and add to salads or grain bowls for a vibrant and healthy addition.
