- 1 bunch beets
- 1 pound (450 gr) carrots
- 2 bunches scallions, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ghee or vegetable oil
- soy sauce or tamari (gluten free)
- ground black pepper
- grated cheese
Scrub beets and carrots. Steam beets whole. (Don’t cut off roots or stems.) After about 15-20 minutes, add carrots. Steam until tender but firm. Then remove outer peels from beets and carrots. (These should slip off easily.) Grate using a coarse grater. Keep beets and carrots separate to preserve their distinct colors. Sauté scallions and garlic in oil or ghee until tender. Toss with beets, carrots and black pepper. Place in casserole dish. Sprinkle with tamari (gluten-free soy sauce(. Cover with grated cheese and broil until cheese is melted and golden.
Serves 4-6.
