Roasted Beets

Beets are probably one of my favorite veggies from the garden. This year, I had a great harvest. The best thing is beets are SO GOOD FOR YOU!

Ever since I had Salt Roasted Beets at Salamander Resort & Spa, I always wanted to recreate that dish. Here is my version of that dish.

Roasted Beets with a Cucumber Pistachio Dill Yogurt Sauce

Roasted Beets Ingredients

  • 3 lbs beets (peeled and cut into quarters)

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 tbsp dried oregano

  • 1 tbsp dried parsley

  • 1 tbsp dried thyme

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • Cucumber Pistachio Dill Yogurt Sauce
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1/2 cup English cucumber

  • 1/4 cup roasted pistachios

  • 1 tbsp fresh dill (finely chopped)

  • pinch of salt

  • Topping
  • 1 tsp fresh dill (finely chopped)

  • 1 tbsp chopped pistachios

  • Water cress (as desired)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line sheet pan with aluminum foil.
  • In a bowl, combine beets, extra virgin olive oil and herbs, salt and pepper, and then spread in a single layer on the sheet pan.
  • Roast beets for 30-35 minutes
  • In a food processer, combine yogurt, cucumber, pistachio, dill and salt. Blend until smooth and well combined.
  • On a plate or swallow bowl, put sauce on the plate. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and fresh dill.
  • Put a healthy serving of the roasted beets in the center of the plate on top of the sauce and top with water cress.
