Ingredients: -
1kg fresh beetroot,
1 Tbsp olive oil,
120 g / 4 oz baby rocket,
60 g feta or danish cheese,
3 tbsp walnuts,
Dressing: -
2 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil,
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar,
1 tbsp honey,
1/2 tsp salt,
Black pepper,
METHOD: -
Preheat oven to 180°C fan-bake.
Wash beetroot well and trim, leaving 4cm stem attached. Cut into chunks approximately 2cm thick. Place beetroot in a shallow baking dish and drizzle with oil. Roast for 30 minutes or until tender. Cool slightly and rub off skins.
Combine the Dressing ingredients in a jar and shake well. Add salt & pepper to taste.
Place rocket lettuce in a serving bowl.
Scatter over beetroot. No need to toss - because of the weight, it should disperse throughout fairly well.
Crumble over the feta and scatter with walnuts - Drizzle over dressing and serve.
