12 Fingerling Or Creamer Potatoes -- about 3/4 pound
12 Garlic Clove Whole, Peeled
4 Tablespoons Olive Oil
Sprigs Of Fresh Rosemary Or Thyme
Salt And Freshly Ground Pepper
1/2 Pound Cipollini * -- peeled

Halve or quarter potatoes lengthwise. Toss potatoes and garlic cloves with 2
tablespoons olive oil and herb sprigs. Season liberally with salt and
pepper. Arrange in a single layer on a baking pan, cover with foil and set
aside.
Toss onions and beets separately with remaining oil and season with salt and
pepper. Wrap onions and beets separately in foil. Roast onions, beets and
potatoes in a preheated 375 degree oven for 35 - 40 minutes or until
vegetables are tender. Uncover potatoes after 20 minutes to allow them to
brown and crisp slightly. Unwrap beets and onions carefully, reserving any
juices for Balsamic Vinaigrette. Slip skins off beets, if desired.
Arrange roasted vegetables attractively on plates and drizzle with Balsamic
Vinaigrette. Place a small mound of Herb Salad in center and garnish with
baby green beans, peas and pea tendrils if available. Serve warm or at room
temperature.
