  • 1½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil divided
  • ¾ to 1 teaspoon kosher salt optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.

  • In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato and parsnip fries with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Arrange in one even layer on a sheet pan. Set aside.
  • Using gloves, so as not to stain hands, peel the beetroot. Rinse and dry well.
  • Cut the beetroot crosswise into ¼ to ⅓-inch thick slices, and then cut each slice lengthwise into ¼ to ⅓-inch-thick fries. Use a glass cutting board or large disposable plastic plate, so as not to stain your kitchen tools.
  • Toss the beet fries with the remaining ½ tablespoon evoo. Arrange in an even layer on a second sheet pan.
  • Bake uncovered for 40 minutes, rotating the baking sheets in the oven from top to bottom halfway through.
