ROASTED BEET SALAD



Roasted Beet Salad image

There's a time and place for pickled beets, but I prefer the effects of roasting them. They turn soft and buttery and form a nice backdrop for a salad. The peppery arugula and creamy goat cheese work well with beets and walnuts add the perfect amount of crunch. I served this salad alongside a grilled steak. It was the perfect, fresh side dish.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound beets, roots and stems trimmed
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 shallots, peeled and halved
2 oranges
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
12 ounces mixed greens
2 to 3 tablespoons salted sunflower seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Set the beets on a baking sheet lined with a two layers of aluminum foil. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and then wrap the beets in the first layer of foil. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and roast until the beets are fork tender, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, place shallots in a small bowl, drizzle with another 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss well. After the beets have roasted for 45 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully place the shallots directly on the second layer of aluminum foil. Return to the oven for another 15 minutes, until the shallots are caramelized and soft and the beets are fully cooked.
  • Let the beets cool in the foil for at least 5 minutes. Transfer the shallots to a large bowl and set aside. When the beets are cool enough to handle, use a paper towel to rub off the skins. Cut the beets into wedges and add them to the bowl with the shallots.
  • Trim the tops and bottoms off the oranges with a paring knife or a small serrated knife. Set the oranges on one of the cut ends and carefully cut away the skins, beginning at the top and following the curve of the fruit down to the bottom. Slice the oranges crosswise into thin slices. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, sugar, mustard, some salt and pepper, and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Pour the dressing over the beets and shallots; toss to combine. Add the mixed greens and the orange slices; toss again. Sprinkle with sunflower seeds.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, deep-colored beets. Avoid beets that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Roast the beets at a high temperature. This will help to caramelize the natural sugars in the beets and give them a delicious flavor.
  • Toss the beets with olive oil and seasonings before roasting. This will help to prevent them from drying out.
  • Roast the beets until they are tender. You can check this by piercing them with a fork. If the fork slides in easily, the beets are done.
  • Let the beets cool slightly before handling. They will be very hot when they come out of the oven.
  • Use a variety of toppings for your salad. Some good options include goat cheese, feta cheese, walnuts, pecans, and balsamic vinegar.
