Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper, if you like. VEGETABLES 5 medium beets, unpeeled Salt and pepper, to taste 2 navel oranges 6 large carrots, halved lengthwise and crosswise ¼ cup pomegranate seeds Extra sprigs fresh thyme (for garnish) 1. Set the oven at 425 degrees. Have on hand a rimmed baking sheet. 2. Sprinkle beets with salt and pepper. Wrap in foil and roast for 1 hour or until not quite tender when pierced with a skewer. Leave to cool. Remove skins and cut each beet into 6 wedges. Transfer to a bowl. Pour 1/3 of the dressing over beets and stir gently to coat. 3. To make segments, cut off the ends of the orange, set on a flat end on a board. Use a serrated knife to slice down the sides of the orange, removing the white pith and peel. Holding the round in your hand, cut inside the membrane to remove the segments. 4. In a saucepan, combine the carrots with water to cover them and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until not quite tender; drain and cool. In a bowl, combine the carrots and 1/3 of the dressing; stir gently to coat. 5. Place beets and carrots separately on the baking sheet. Roast the vegetables for 20 minutes or until tender. Remove from oven and transfer to a bowl. 6. Add the orange segments, pomegranate seeds, and remaining dressing. Garnish with thyme. Valerie Ryan This recipe published with BigOven, and can be imported instantly by BigOven users.
