Preheat oven to 180 degrees C (350 degrees F). Give the beetroot a scrub and remove the stalks. Using aluminium foil create a little parcel for each beetroot, add a little water add beets and seal the edges. Place on an oven tray and cook for 50 minutes. Remove from the oven;open the parcel and allow to cool. Once cool, the skin will rub off the beets. Alternatively use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin. Chop in small chunks
