Ingredients
- 4 medium Fresh beetroot
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoons Fresh thyme (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Wash and peel the beetroots. Cut them into 1-inch cubes to ensure even roasting.
Step 3
Place the beetroot cubes into a large mixing bowl.
Step 4
Add the olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss the beetroot cubes until they are well coated with oil and seasonings.
Step 5
If using fresh thyme, sprinkle it over the beetroots and toss again to distribute evenly.
Step 6
Spread the beetroot cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Step 7
Roast in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking, until the beetroots are tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.
Step 8
If desired, drizzle the roasted beetroot with balsamic vinegar immediately after removing from the oven, and toss to coat.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish or cool and use as a salad topping.
