Beterrabas assadas

Ingredientes

• 3 lbs. beets (one bag of beets in a variety, about 12 beets)
• 3 Tbsp. good olive oil
• 1 Tbsp. fresh thyme (minced, optional)
• Kosher or large grain sea salt
• Freshly ground pepper

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400F. Scrub beets and cut off top and bottom. Cut into small chunks; the small ones can be cut in quarters, and the larger ones can be in sixths.

2. 2

   Place on a rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle with olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Toss well to coat evenly. Roast for 35-45 min. turning once or twice. I like to wait until they are starting to brown before turning, probably at 20 min. mark or longer.

3. 3

   Remove from oven and season further with salt and pepper if you like and add the thyme. Serve hot.
