Rinse the beetroot to get rid of any debris. Then, using a vegetable grater, peel off the skin of the beetroot. Slice the peeled beetroot into bite sized chunks.
Place the cut beets onto a silpat-lined baking tray/sheet pan.
Mix the oil, coriander, smoked paprika, and turmeric in a small bowl and drizzle this over the beets. Toss beets in the spiced oil mixture so all the pieces of beetroot are fully coated. Then spread the beets out on the sheet pan.
Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until the beets are fork-tender.
Turn the oven off and season with salt and pepper to taste.
If using parsley and chili flakes, sprinkle these on now and serve.
