Take beetroot leaves off beetroot. Discard and wilted or yellow/brown leaves.

Trim off any bad stalks so you end up with it looking like this.

Chop.

It's up to you how big or fine, I like it this size....

Heat butter in a large frying pan with garlic.

Add beetroot, stalk bits on bottom and leaves on top. Season with salt and pepper.

Add a splash of water.

Cover with a lid, or another frying pan if no lid not big enough! :-)

After a few minutes beetroot should be tender and cooked, if not stir and replace lid for another couple minutes, repeat until ready!

Serve! I love this with roast chicken! But will go with lots of dishes, think of it like spinach!
