More cleaning today. Then we had Rob over for a roast. For the first time ever Kathryn was not able to criticise anything that I cooked. I did some really yummy beetroot and some chips. Here is what went down.
Beetroot
Get whole fresh beetroot. Cut the stems off, leaving about 2-3cm of stem on it and leave the tail on. Wash them really well under cold water, DO NOT peel them. Place them together on enough foil to make a loose package (I used two bits of foil, one under the beetroot and one for the cover).
Crush and coarsely cut two cloves of garlic and chuck them in with the beetroot. Put some pepper and salt on them and then drizzle Ricebran oil over the top. Cover them with the foil to enclose the package, but make ure it is not to tight. Whack it in the oven at about 180 degrees for about an hour. They are cooked when you can put a knife through them easier than cutting block of cheddar.
Top and tail them, chop them up (I chopped them into largish pieces) and put the on the plate, then drizzle some balsamic vinegar over the top of them.
YUM.
I will post up my chip recipe tomorrow.
