Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F.

Individually wrap beets in foil and place on a baking sheet; roast until beets are tender when pierced with a fork, about 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool slightly.

Meanwhile, with a sharp knife, segment oranges. Cut each segment into bite-size pieces and place in a medium bowl; squeeze juice from orange membranes over bowl. Add onion, cilantro, vinegar, jalapeno, salt and cumin seeds; toss to mix and coat.

When cool enough to handle, remove foil from beets and rub off skins with your hands. Dice beets and add to orange mixture; gently toss to mix and coat. Yields about 1/2 cup per serving.
