Recipe: Roasted Bunched Beetroot with Goat Cheese and Walnuts

Ingredients:

  • 4 bunched beetroots, washed and trimmed (leaving about an inch of the stems intact)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
  • Fresh parsley or dill, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the bunched beetroots on a baking sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Roast the beetroots in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes or until tender. Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the beetroots; they should be easily pierced.
  4. Once roasted, remove the beetroots from the oven and let them cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, peel off the skin using your fingers or a small knife. The skin should come off easily.
  5. Slice the roasted beetroots into rounds or wedges and arrange them on a serving platter.
  6. Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese and chopped walnuts over the beetroots.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill.
  8. Serve as a side dish or as part of a salad.
