Ingredients
- 4 whole medium beetroots
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Wash and scrub the beetroots under cold running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 3
Trim any remaining stems to about 1 inch and remove the roots.
Step 4
Cut the beetroots into wedges, about eight pieces per beetroot, to ensure even roasting.
Step 5
Place beetroot wedges in a large bowl and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.
Step 6
Add the fresh thyme leaves to the bowl and toss everything together until the beetroot wedges are well-coated with the oil and seasoning.
Step 7
Spread the seasoned beetroot wedges in a single layer on a large baking sheet, ensuring they have enough space to roast evenly.
Step 8
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the beetroot for 40-45 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Turn the beetroot wedges halfway through cooking for even roasting.
Step 9
Once roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the beetroot cool for a few minutes.
Step 10
Serve as a side dish, and enjoy the earthy and subtly sweet flavor of roasted beetroots.
