ROASTED BEETS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND FETA



Roasted Beets With Caramelized Onions and Feta image

This is an amazing recipe for fresh beets, if you don't have any fresh beets you can substitute two 15-ounce cans drained small whole beets, halved or if they are large then quarter them, but I have to say that fresh beets are better! --- for the fresh beets you can boil them or I prefer to roast them in the oven in foil in a 400°F oven for about 30 minutes or until just fork-tender --- this is just as delicious cold as it is served hot! --- prep time does not include roasting the beets and cooking the onions.

Yield Makes 4 first-course or side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (preferably whole-grain or coarse-grain)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb onions (2 medium), quartered lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces
2 (15-oz) cans small whole beets, drained and quartered (or halved if very small)
3 oz crumbled feta (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup pine nuts (1 oz), toasted and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Whisk together vinegar, mustard, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl, then add 3 tablespoons oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined well.
  • Cook onions with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Add onions to dressing, then add beets and cheese, stirring gently to combine. Serve sprinkled with pine nuts.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Look for beets that are small to medium in size, with smooth skin and deep red color. Avoid beets that are too large, as they may be woody.
  • Roast the beets: Roasting the beets concentrates their sweetness and flavor. Toss the beets with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast them at 425°F for about 45 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Caramelize the onions: Caramelizing the onions adds a rich, sweet flavor to the dish. Cook the onions in a mixture of butter and olive oil over medium-low heat for about 30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and caramelized.
  • Use good-quality feta cheese: Feta cheese adds a tangy, salty flavor to the dish. Look for feta cheese that is made from sheep's milk or a combination of sheep's and goat's milk.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately, while the beets are still warm and the onions are still caramelized. You can also make it ahead of time and reheat it before serving.

Conclusion:

This simple yet flavorful dish is a great way to enjoy the delicious combination of beets, caramelized onions, and feta cheese. It's perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it can also be served as a side dish. With its vibrant colors and contrasting flavors, this dish is sure to impress your guests.
