Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 220°C.
Toss the carrots with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of pepper on a baking sheet. Tear off 3 pieces of foil; place 2 beets on each sheet. Drizzle the beets with 1 tablespoon olive oil and wrap in foil. Place the carrots and beets in the oven; roast the carrots until browned and tender, 30 to 35 minutes, and the beets, 50 minutes to 1 hour. - Toast the pecans in a small dry skillet over low heat, stirring, for about 5 minutes; let cool. Transfer to a food processor; add the parsley, mint, garlic, lemon zest, 2 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon salt, and ground pepper. Pulse several times to form a paste. Gradually add the remaining 1/3 cup olive oil and puree until smooth. Add the Parmesan and pulse again.
Let the beets cool slightly, then peel and cut into pieces. Place in a large bowl or on a plate and add the carrots and pesto; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
