Beet home fries

  • 8

Ingredients

  • 20 beets
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 2 cups kewpie mayonnaise
  • shichimi(japanese 7-spice blend)
  • 1/2 cup green onoins, sliced

Preparation

Step 1



Place beets in the center of a large foil sheet.

Drizzle beets with oil and vinegar.

Place a second large foil sheet on top of beets, crimping the edges together to form an airtight pocket.

Roast in oven for 2 hours at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

When beets are ready, peel them using a kitchen towel. If roasted correctly, the skin should slide right off.

Cut beets into 1-inch cubes and allow them to chill.

Toss beets in cornstarch until covered, adding more corn starch as needed. Fry in soybean oil at 375 degrees Fahrenheit in 2-cup batches, until outer cornstarch layer becomes crispy.

Serve each batch with 1/4 cup of kewpie mayonnaise. Garnish with shichimi togarashi and green onion.
