Zebra Fries
Jul 19th, 2008
These beautiful fries are made from beets (we used Chioggia beets because they came in our CSA packet, but we’ve been known to disguise any root veggie as a “pretty fry”)
- Slice beets into shoestring fry shapes.
- Toss with a little oil (we use canola) and some salt.
- Arrange on greased cookie sheet in a single layer.
- Roast in the oven at 425° until crispy, about 35 minutes.
For a grown-up version I use olive oil and garlic, and toss in some sliced sage leaves as well. They are yummy!

I’m not much of a cook but I’m always looking for new (easy) ideas. I may try these - I’ve never seen this type of beet before, but maybe I’ll give it a shot with regular beets. Anything I need to know about slicing them?

These look good. Who knows what we get each week, but beets are available and will try some.
