hello I'm Karen ridges from veggie vision TV and today I'm going to be showing you some healthy cooking tips today I'm going to be showing you how to cook beet roots now beet roots are fantastic you really must incorporate them into your diet there's nothing better actually than popping a nice feet root into your juicer and having fresh feet root juice however today we are simply going to be boiling these now a good tip is these bits here you just leave about an inch on don't cut them right back to the beetroot give them a little wash of course and I always leave this on as well I don't like to cut the beetroot because I feel that this lets out more of the goodness what we're going to do with these is pop them straight into boiling water and then cook them for about half an hour now put enough water in so the beet roots are covered so check maybe in about 15 or 20 minutes after your beet roots have been boiling and just stab them again make sure that the knife comes out quite easily these are absolutely perfect let them cool down run them under cold water and then they're much easier to peel if you do leave them to cool for too long then it's much more difficult to peel them off so I like to peel these under a running tap and you will find that the skins will come off quite easily and if you do find that you have any beetroot stains on your hands a little bit of lemon juice it's a good thing to get the stains out or simply wear gloves so there we go really tasty gorgeous freshly cooked beetroot and I think we've become very lazy and bye ready cooked beetroot and this tastes much much better a lovely way to enjoy your beetroot is simply slice them up drizzle over some olive oil and some LEM juice on top add some dairy-free yogurt with some cumin mixed in and then add a good handful of chili and coriander it's a fantastic salad and that is how you can cook beetroot
