    I could not find fresh beetroot so used pre-cooked (vacuum packed) beetroot instead and just did it for 20 minutes to cook. It was a hit with our guests. Many of which hadn't tried warm beetrot before.

    This was a fabulous accompaniment to roast lamb, but I could have eaten this as a dish in itself with crusty bread - sublime!
