Roasted candy-striped beets

If you can't bear to cook these (as they will lose much of their pretty stripes and colour in the process), then simply serve them raw, carpaccio-style.

Otherwise, rinse, top and tail, and peel the beets. Cut in half and then into wedges. Place on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil, freshly ground sea salt and pepper and a little dried thyme.

Roast in a 200c oven, turning them occasionally, till crisp (around 30 minutes, depending on the size of the wedges).

Oh, and don't discard the stalks and leaves if they look in good condition! More on what to do with these in an upcoming post.
