Preparation
- Preheat the oven at 375°F. Line a 10”x15” baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the stems and root but keep 1 cm on both sides. Wrap beets in aluminium paper and place on a baking tray. Cook on the oven for 1 hour or until beets are ultra tender. Let cool down 15 minutes before unwrapping. Remove skin by rubbing gently under warm water. Cut in 3 cmslices.
- On a floured surface, roll down flaky dough slightly bigger than 10”x15”. Place on the baking tray and roll the sides in order to create a crust.
- Spread half of the goat cheese and Boursin cheese then drizzle some olive oil on top.
- Add the beets followed by the rest of goat cheese and Boursin. Add 3/4 of the chive, sprinkle with Provence herbs then season with salt and pepper.
- Cook in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until crust is nicely golden! Garnish with the rest of the chive and add a drizzle of olive before serving!
Our sommeliers suggest
Adega de Penalva Dao 2014
Dão and Lafões, Portugal
The Adega de Penalva Dão is a fruity, lively white from Portugal. Its freshness cuts through the creamy Boursin and goat cheese, and since beets are sweet and a little earthy, a light white lets them shine without bossing them around. Perfect for a lunch on the patio with a green salad on the side, nothing fussy.

Préparation Hache, Les Grands Bois
The sweet, earthy beet finds its echo in a pale ale infused with hibiscus flower. Its herbal notes meet the Boursin and the chives, and its measured bitterness contrasts with the acidity of the cheeses. A slice of warm tart and a cold glass stand on their own.
