How to Make Beets Infused With Garlic And Olive Oil

• Scrub beets clean, then cover with water and boil on a stovetop or zap in a microwave until a fork stuck in the middle slides in effortlessly.
• Slice the beets thinly and cut each slice into quarters, then eighths.
• Pour the oil-garlic-lemon mixture over the beets and toss well.
• Set aside for about half an hour for the flavours to infuse. Serve at room temperature.
