Beets With Moroccan Dressing

Beets cooked over the barbecue grow smoky and rich. You can also use canned beets.

Type: Vegetables
Serves: 1 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Raw - unpeeled beets, up to 6
  (or use peeled - cooked beets)
  Olive oil - for brushing
  Moroccan Dressing
3   Garlic cloves - finely chopped
1   Onion - finely chopped
1   Ripe or canned tomato - chopped
2 tablespoons 30mlChopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlGround cumin
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlCurry powder
1 tablespoon 15mlVinegar or lemon juice
3 tablespoons 45mlOlive oil
1   Sugar
  Salt - to taste
  Ground cayenne - to taste

Recipe Instructions

Prepare a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill.

Brush the beats with olive oil and place over medium-low coals. Cook raw beats slowly over heat until they are easily pierced, 1 to 1 1/2 hours; precooked beets should be placed over the heat just long enough to develop a smoky aroma, about 5 minutes.

Remove from the barbecue, peel if necessary, then cut into thick slices. Blend the dressing ingredients and toss with the beets. Taste for seasoning. Serve warm or at room temperature.
