I posted this recipe a while back in a comment to an entry in [community profile] omnomnom. Now that it's Thanksgiving weekend and we have a bunch of beets from the last week of our CSA for the year, I've been looking high and low for it, so here it is for future reference.

I'm not a huge fan of beets, but these are really nice and really simple. They go well in a salad, or you can use them as a side. It's a fairly large recipe but it halves. We get tiny beets from our CSA, so we just peel them and cut the larger ones down to 1cm/½" cubes.

Orange-glazed beets
(from Vegan With a Vengeance)

  • 1½lb / ¾kg beets (3-4 average sized); peeled, quartered, sliced ~¼"/½cm thick
  • 1 cup / 250ml orange juice
  • 1 tsp / 5ml orange zest
  • 1 tsp / 5ml maple syrup
  • 1 tsp / 5ml salt

Put everything into a large pan, cover, and bring to a low boil. Simmer for around 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover & reduce to give a nice glaze.
