Wash the beetroots, but do not cut them; put them in cold water, and boil till they feel soft if pressed - the time depends upon the size; then take them up, peel and slice them. Make the sauce by directions given elsewhere. Put in the beetroot and simmer for about half an hour; dish the beets and pour the sauce over. It should be of a bright red colour.
