Step 1
To braise beetroot with their leaves, cut the leaves from the beetroot, wash well and chop coarsely. Peel the beetroot and cut them into wedges 1.5cm thick. -
Step 2
Cook the onion and garlic in the olive oil, until softened, then add the beetroot segments and enough water just to cover. -
Step 3
Season and cook slowly for about 30 minutes, until the beetroot is tender. Add the chopped leaves (ruby chard can be added at this stage, too) and cook for 5 minutes. Season and sprinkle with lemon juice.
