Grated beetroot and herb salad
Earthy beetroot and sweet apple are tied together with fresh herbs and a fruity dressing.
Ingredients
- 2 granny smith or pink lady apples, cored and thinly sliced
- Grated zest and juice 1 lemon
- 400g beetroot, grated
- 400g carrot, grated
- Large bunch each fresh flatleaf parsley and mint, leaves roughly chopped
- Small bunch fresh dill, roughly chopped
For the dressing
- Juice 1 orange
- Juice 1½ lemons
- ½ tsp caster sugar
- 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Method
- Coat the apple in the lemon juice (see Make Ahead). Mix all the salad ingredients together in a large bowl.
