4 large, fresh beets (2 1/2” diameter, trimmed, peeled and quartered (canned will not work for this, they have to be fresh beets)
6-8 cloves of garlic, quartered
1 Tbsp minced thyme (or the equivalent dried)
2 teaspoons Olive oil
1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp orange juice (fresh if you can)
2 Tbsp water
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. When you handle the beets, I would recommend using vinyl gloves or those disposable deli-type gloves so the beet juice doesn’t stain your hands. In a glass baking pan or casserole dish, combine the beets, garlic, hlf of the thyme and the oil.
In a small bowl, comine the orange juice and the water. Pour over the beets. Cover with foil and roast until tender 45-50 minutes. Remove the foil and roast 10 minutes longer. Serve, sprinkled with the remaining thyme.
