This method delivers a “melt-in-your-mouth” tenderness with a professional, “steakhouse-quality” finish.
Ingredients
• The “Magic” Star: 3-4 large Beets, scrubbed and sliced into “wow” rounds (just like your photo).
• The “Velvety” Glaze: 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil and 1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar (check for no added sugar!).
• The Aromatics: 2 cloves Garlic (minced), a pinch of sea salt, and cracked black pepper.
• The Fresh Finish: A sprinkle of fresh Parsley or Goat Cheese (optional) for that “bakery-perfect” look.
Preparation Steps
1. The Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F. This high heat is the “secret” to caramelizing the natural “wow” sweetness of the beets.
2. The Toss: In a glass bowl, whisk the oil, balsamic, and garlic. Toss the beet slices until they are completely “smothered” and look “unbelievable.”
3. The Roast: Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 25–30 minutes until they are tender and have a professional-grade char.
4. The Reveal: Serve warm or chilled as a “treasure” side dish that makes you feel “reborn”!
