Put 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick pan, brown the halved garlic and the potato hearts.
Season with salt and pepper, and when the potatoes are cooked and crispy, remove from the heat and set aside.
In the same pan, add the beet hearts, and keeping the heat high, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Towards the end of cooking, when they are also crispy, add a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar glaze, and cook for a few more minutes.
At this point, plate them together or separately, as you prefer.
