Categories     Side     Kid-Friendly     Beet     Bon Appétit     Small Plates

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds mixed small or medium beets (such as Chioggia, red, and/or golden), scrubbed
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup (lightly packed) fresh mint leaves, plus more
2 tablespoons torn fresh dill, plus more
1/2 cup labneh (Lebanese strained yogurt) or plain Greek yogurt
Flaky sea salt (such as Maldon)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°. Divide beets between 2 large sheets of foil. Drizzle beets on each sheet with 1/2 tablespoon oil; season with kosher salt and pepper and wrap up foil around beets. Roast on a rimmed baking sheet until tender, 40-50 minutes. Let cool slightly, then, using a paper towel, rub skins from beets (they should slip off easily). Crush beets with the bottom of a small bowl (it's alright if they fall apart).
  • Meanwhile, whisk lemon zest, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons oil in a large bowl; set vinaigrette aside.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beets, season with kosher salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to bowl with vinaigrette, add 1/4 cup mint and 2 tablespoons dill, and toss to coat. Serve beets and dollops of labneh drizzled with more oil, topped with more herbs, and seasoned with pepper and sea salt.

ROASTED MARINATED BEETS WITH VINAIGRETTE



Roasted Marinated Beets With Vinaigrette image

I love roasted beets and am always ordering them out...but have never tried making them at home. Posting this recipe for safekeeping. Adapted from "Atlanta Cooks: 125 Recipes from 25 Top Atlanta Chefs" by Melissa Libby, this recipe is from the Floataway Cafe restaurant in the Atlanta area. Their roasted beets are the BEST. Also great paired with goat cheese in a green salad. NOTE: 2nd ingredient is for 1/4 cup raspberry vinegar...for some reason ZAAR won't let me input that ingredient.

Tips:

  • Choose small to medium-sized beets for even cooking and a more tender texture.
  • Scrub the beets thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris, but don't peel them, as the skin helps to retain their vibrant color and nutrients.
  • Toss the beets in olive oil and season them with salt and pepper before roasting. This will help them to caramelize and develop a delicious flavor.
  • Roast the beets at a high temperature (425°F or 220°C) for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Allow the beets to cool slightly before peeling and slicing them. This will make them easier to handle and prevent them from staining your hands.
  • For the lemon vinaigrette, use a good quality olive oil and fresh lemon juice. You can also add herbs such as basil, thyme, or oregano for extra flavor.
  • Serve the roasted beets warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed as a side dish, salad, or appetizer.

Conclusion:

Roasted beets are a delicious and nutritious side dish that can be enjoyed all year round. They are easy to make and can be paired with a variety of dishes. The lemon vinaigrette adds a bright and tangy flavor to the beets, making them even more irresistible. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give roasted beets with lemon vinaigrette a try!
