Roast beetroot

Roasted Chicken Maryland with roast beetroot, corn and quinoa

Roasted Chicken Maryland with roast beetroot, corn and quinoa was my dinner tonight. For an added twist I cooked the chicken in a pool of beef stock from my super delicious roast beef (because I like fusion cuisine  ).

Roast lamb and roast beetroot salad

Sure it’s a warm Spring day but that doesn’t mean you can’t slowly roast some Spring lamb and enjoy a salad for dinner.

This boneless roast lamb loin is easy to cook but not as easy as cooking beetroot. To prepare beetroot I just top and tail them, clean them in cold water and place on some aluminium foil. I spray them with a little olive oil and scrunch up the foil for an airtight seal. Then into the oven at 150 °C for an hour. I put them straight in the refrigerator and use them in salads.
