Categories     Vegetable     Dinner     Healthy

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup unsweetened orange juice
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 (15-ounce) can whole beets, undrained

Steps:

  • 1) Combine first 5 ingredients in a medium saucepan; stir until blended. 2) Add beets to saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook 1 minute or until sauce thickens, stirring constantly. Garnish with orange zest, if desired

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Select firm, smooth beets with no bruises or blemishes. Fresh beets have vibrant green leaves, which are also edible.
  • Roast the beets: Roasting intensifies the beets' natural sweetness and brings out their earthy flavor. To roast beets, wrap them in foil and bake at 400°F for about an hour, or until tender.
  • Use a flavorful glaze: The glaze is what makes these beets extra special. The orange-balsamic glaze in this recipe is a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and tangy.
  • Don't overcook the beets: Overcooked beets will become mushy and lose their vibrant color. When roasting, check the beets with a fork after about 45 minutes. They are done when they are tender but still hold their shape.
  • Serve warm or cold: Orange glazed beets can be served warm or cold. They are delicious as a side dish, appetizer, or even in a salad.

Conclusion:

Orange glazed beets are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With their beautiful color and amazing flavor, these beets are sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy beets, give this recipe a try.
