Scrub some beetroot and cut off any knobbly bits. I don't usually bother to peel them. Chop into cubes. Add a drained can of chickpeas (pat dry with a paper towel). Then sprinkle over some ground cumin, salt and chilli flakes. Drizzle over a little olive oil and toss with your hands (you may want to wear disposable gloves if you're fussy about red hands!) Bake at 220 for about 40mins, or until beetroot cooked. Eat as is, or if you want it as a salad you could add feta cheese, olives, and vinaigrette with plenty of garlic and some finely chopped parsley and mint.

I used to roast beetroot in olive oil, balsamic vinegar and brown sugar, then I had another recipe where I would grate raw beetroot into a cabbage and grated carrot coleslaw and add toasted caraway seeds.

Carrots and beetroot cut into batons, red onions quartered.Put into large bowl. Add olive oil, orange juice, balsamic vinegar, sprinkle with brown sugar. Roast until tender.Delicious hot or cold.
I don't bother doing this in my oven, I use my electric frypan - comes out great every time and it is a big favourite all year round in this house.
