• Peel beets and cut into 3/4-inch wedges. In a bowl toss beets with 1 teaspoon oil to coat and in one end of a shallow baking pan spread in one layer.
• Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch-thick slices. In another bowl toss potatoes with 1 teaspoon oil to coat and at other end of baking pan spread in one layer, making sure that potatoes do not touch beets (beets will bleed).
