Categories     appetizer

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 small beets
1 medium ruby red grapefruit
2 ounces alfalfa sprouts, trimmed
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium shallot, minced
3 pinches salt
10 grinds black pepper
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
Thyme leaves from 10 delicate sprigs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Wrap the beets individually in aluminum foil. Roast about 1 hour and 15 minutes or until fork tender. Remove beets from oven, unwrap and let cool 5 minutes before peeling. Slice the beets into eighths.
  • Remove the peel of the grapefruit with a sharp knife, cutting all the way down to the grapefruit flesh. Then cut the individual grapefruit segments out from their skin, using the supreme technique. Place the grapefruit segments in a bowl. Take the inner grapefruit remains and squeeze whatever juice you can out of it over the top of the grapefruit segments in the bowl.
  • Make the dressing by mixing together all the dressing ingredients along with all the juice that you can strain from the bowl of grapefruit.
  • Assemble the salad: Make a little heap of alfalfa in the middle of the plate. Scatter the cut beets around the plate. Pinch off pieces of the grapefruit segments and scatter them around the plate. Drizzle generously with dressing, top with a couple more grinds black pepper and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beets: Look for beets that are small to medium in size, with smooth skin and no bruises. Avoid beets that are soft or have cracks.
  • Roast the beets properly: To get the best flavor and texture, roast the beets at a high temperature (400°F or higher) until they are tender but still slightly firm. This will take about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the beets.
  • Use a variety of citrus fruits: In addition to grapefruit, you can use oranges, lemons, limes, or a combination of citrus fruits in this recipe. Each citrus fruit will give the beets a slightly different flavor, so experiment to find your favorite combination.
  • Don't skip the herbs: Rosemary and thyme are the perfect herbs to complement the beets and citrus fruits in this recipe. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
  • Make sure the beets are cool before slicing: Once the beets are roasted, let them cool slightly before slicing them. This will help prevent them from breaking apart.

Conclusion:

Roasted beets with grapefruit and rosemary is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beets are roasted until tender and slightly caramelized, and then tossed with a simple vinaigrette made with grapefruit juice, olive oil, and herbs. The result is a dish that is both sweet and savory, with a hint of citrus. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beets, and it is also a healthy and nutritious option.
