Zubereitungszeit ca. 1 Stunden 15 MinutenVorbereitung ca. 30 MinutenKochzeit ca. 45 Minuten
Zutaten:
- 2 pounds medium beets, scrubbed and tops trimmed (5 to 6 beets)
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 medium orange
- 1 medium lemon
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 ounces soft goat cheese
- ⅓ cup walnut halves, toasted and chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs, like mint, basil, or dill
- Flaky sea salt, like Maldon, for serving
Arbeitsschritte:
- Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the whole beets in the middle of a large sheet of foil and drizzle with the 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Wrap the foil around the beets to form a packet. Roast until tender, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them cool, wrapped in the foil, to room temperature.
- Using a vegetable peeler, peel the skins, then cut the beets into wedges. Place them into a large bowl.
- Zest half of the orange and half of the lemon, then add the zest to a small bowl. Whisk in the juice of the orange and lemon, honey, vinegar, ¼ cup of olive oil, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
- Pour one-third of the dressing over the beets and toss well. Spoon the beets onto a platter, arranging them in a single layer. Crumble the goat cheese over the top, then scatter the toasted walnuts and fresh herbs over the beets. Spoon more dressing over the top and finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt (if using).
