Heat oil in skillet; stir-fry the beets, carrots,
onions and raisins for several minutes over
medium-high heat. Add the remaining ingredients;
lower heat. Toss well to combine. Cover and steam
until the vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
Horton wrote: "The flavors in this recipe are
absolutely remarkable. You may use all beets or all
carrots instead, but the combination is superb and
beautiful to look at as you prepare. If the beets are
well scrubbed, they do not have to be peeled."
