Why recepie famous for?
always grew beets then pickled or canned them, but I prefer to prepare them differently. I like these roasted beets in the winter but they can be enjoyed all year with the addition of fresh herbs and tangy goat cheese.
Ingredients
3 medium fresh golden beets (about 1 pound)3 medium fresh beets (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons orange juice
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh sage
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
3 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese
2 tablespoons sunflower kernels
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°. Scrub beets and trim tops to 1 in. Place beets on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 24x12-in.). Fold foil around beets, sealing tightly. Place on a baking sheet. Roast until tender, 55-65 minutes. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape.
When cool enough to handle, peel, halve and slice beets; place in a serving bowl. Add lime juice, orange juice and salt; toss to coat. Combine parsley, sage, garlic and orange zest; sprinkle over beets. Top with goat cheese and sunflower kernels. Serve warm or chilled.
