Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beets

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the beets thoroughly to remove any dirt, then trim the tops and tails. Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil.

  2. 2

    Roast the Beets

    Place the wrapped beets on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Ancho Mixture

    In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, ancho chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

  4. 4

    Peel and Slice

    Once the beets are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Unwrap the beets and peel the skins off using your hands or a paper towel. Slice the beets into wedges.

  5. 5

    Coat the Beets

    Drizzle the marinade over the sliced beets and toss gently to coat them evenly. Add lime juice and mix well.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the coated beets to a serving platter and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve warm or at room temperature.
