Roasted Beets With Anise Cinnamon And Orange Juice Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Remove the tops and the roots of the beets and peel each one with a vegetable peeler. Cut the beets in 1 1/2-inch chunks. (Small beets can be halved, medium ones cut in quarters, and large beets cut in eighths.)
• Place the cut beets on a baking sheet and toss with the olive oil, thyme leaves, salt, and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, turning once or twice with a spatula, until the beets are tender. Remove from the oven and immediately toss with the vinegar and orange juice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve warm.

Steps:

• *Note: I used small spring beets which means they were not peeled. I also did not cut the beets into chunks but in half due to their size.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a roasting pan with parchment paper.
• Combine the beets, oil, salt, anise seeds, cinnamon stick pieces, orange juice and pomegranate molasses in the pan, tossing to coat the beets evenly.
• Spread the beets in a single layer and roast for about 45 minutes, shaking the pan a few times to roast the beets evenly and roasting the beets until they are fork-tender.
• Discard the cinnamon stick pieces.
• Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with orange zest (and minced fresh herb of choice if using).
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place beets on a large piece of foil on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fold foil around beets and crimp ends to form a packet. Roast until tender when pierced with a knife, about 45 minutes.
• Transfer beets to a large bowl and drizzle with vinegar, honey, and orange juice. Top with orange zest and thyme.

Steps:

• Place beets in a large saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 25-30 minutes or until tender. Drain and cool slightly. Peel and slice; place in a serving bowl and keep warm., In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and pepper; stir in orange juice until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in orange slices if desired and zest. Pour over beets.
