Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender beets: Look for beets that are smooth, firm, and have no blemishes. Avoid beets that are wilted or have cracks or bruises.
  • Roast the beets before using: Roasting the beets intensifies their flavor and makes them easier to peel and slice.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the beets: This will help prevent the beets from crumbling.
  • Add the cumin seeds to the hot oil: This will help release their flavor.
  • Stir the beets and onions frequently: This will help prevent them from burning.
  • Season the beets with salt and pepper to taste: Be careful not to over-season, as the beets can easily become too salty.
  • Serve the beets warm or at room temperature: They can be enjoyed as a side dish or as part of a salad.

Conclusion:

This simple yet flavorful dish is a great way to enjoy beets. The roasted beets are tender and sweet, while the cumin seeds add a warm, earthy flavor. The dish is also very versatile and can be served as a side dish, a salad, or even a main course. If you are looking for a healthy and delicious way to eat beets, this recipe is a great option.
