So, I turned beetroot into crisps! Beetroot can be eaten raw or cooked. If you have some beetroot left in your kitchen and don’t know what to do with them, try to make beetroot crisps! It shouldn’t take you long to do. You can either bake or fry (it’s a bit oily if deep-fried, so I opted for baking).
Slice the beetroot thinly, arrange the slices on a baking tray and bake them under 180 degree celcius (on the middle or lower rack of the oven) for about 10 – 15 minutes or until they are dry and crispy. You have to check them from time to time just to make sure that they are not burnt (if they come in different thinness) unless you use a mandolin!

Lovely photos indeed – I agree with the rose petal analogy!

[rasa malaysia] Thanks for your comment. I am in London and travel to France from time to time.
[steamy kitchen] Thanks! Yup, they taste great. There’s a difference when eating them baked/fried as they do taste a bit like potato crisps, about 20-30%.
[pille] Thanks for your comment!

Not only do these sound delicious but they look so pretty! Like potpourri, except edible.

Gah, left another comment in the wrong post…was wondering why my comment never appeared on this post. Ooooh, you are in London, the next time I come, I must ask you for restaurant reco’s…perhaps we can go eat together. I was at Belgo, Palais de la something French near my hotel St. Martin’s Lane…a Spanish tapa place near the hotel, and a few others.

[Ari] Thank you for your comment!
[Rasa Malaysia] Guess it’s Le Palais du Jardin? I google this and it’s the nearest match from what you said. And the Tapas place, guess must be La Tasca? I have never been to both
There’s one place that I really want to try is La Petite Maison in Mayfair. They serve Mediterranean cuisine. Read this in the newspaper with good review.

I would like to know if anyone has had snapzcrisps apple or beetroot. They say it is not fried or baked. How else can it be made?
Thanks

Spain,
I have never had snapzcrisps before. Well, apart from fried or baked, all I could think of is probably sun dried? (maybe), then somehow processed in another way again.
I prefer baked and not fried cos it’s less oily.

Thank you My cooking Hut. If you are in England could you try them and let me have your feedback. I want to make some myself but don´t really know if it is worth it. Thanks.
November 7th, 2008 at 8:14 pm
Spain,
I will try to see where I can get these. Definitely would like to try them out and see what they are like. Please do drop by often
November 8th, 2008 at 10:34 am
My cooking pot,
