Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized fresh beetroot
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Begin by thoroughly washing the beetroot to remove any dirt. Peel each beetroot using a vegetable peeler and trim off both the top and root ends.
Step 3
Cut the beetroot into evenly sized wedges to ensure consistent cooking.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the beetroot wedges with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss until the beetroot is evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the beetroot wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 6
Sprinkle the fresh thyme over the beetroot, distributing it evenly.
Step 7
Roast the beetroot in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes. Use a fork to check for tenderness; the beetroot should be easily pierced.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the beetroot from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish or add to a salad for extra earthy flavor.
