Ingredients

  • 1 large beet (or 3-4 small ones)
  • 1 handful fresh parsley
  • 1 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • as needed pepper and herb salt

To serve (so optional) :

  • 2 Tbsp vegetable yogurt
  • 4 blades chives
  • 1 tsp Olive oil
  • as needed salt & pepper
  • as needed cilantro and fresh sprouts
  • as needed fresh currants

Instructions

  • Turn the oven on static function to 200°C (400°F)
  • Peel the red beet with a potato peeler. If you can't/won't get your hands dirty, I recommend putting on gloves for all the steps in this recipe.
  • Then cut the beet into fairly large pieces (see photo above).
  • Put the beet in a large bowl. Add the pepper and herb salt, garlic powder, parsley, and olive oil. Mix well with a spoon.
  • In a baking dish with baking paper place all your seasoned raw beet pieces. Well spread out so they don't touch each other.
  • Bake in the oven for 45-50 minutes or until the beet is nicely toasted. Then remove from the oven.
  • You can eat it this way or embellish it with a vegetable yogurt dip (see recipe below), cilantro and fresh sprouts, and fresh currants.

For the yogurt sauce

  • Mix the vegetable yogurt with the oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Using scissors, cut your chive clumps into the bowl.
  • Mix it all together and then place the yogurt sauce on top of the beet randomly.
