Roasted Baby Beets with Labneh and Honey Vinaigrette

Method

Preparation and Serving

  1. 1

    Roasting the Beets

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash the baby beets and trim the tops, leaving about an inch of the stem. Place the beets on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Cover with foil and roast for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.

  2. 2

    Preparing the Beet Greens

    While the beets are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a splash of olive oil and sauté the beet greens until wilted, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Making the Honey Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together honey, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Adjust to taste.

  4. 4

    Assembling the Dish

    Once the beets are roasted and cool enough to handle, peel and cut them into wedges. On a serving plate, spread the labneh, arrange the roasted beets on top, and garnish with sautéed beet greens, chopped pistachios, and lavender mint leaves. Drizzle with honey vinaigrette before serving.
