MANDARIN, ASPARAGUS & BABY BEETROOT SALAD

Posted On: 2023-11-03 12:57:57

Ingredients:

4 (1 bunch) baby beetroot, trimmed

3 mandarins

1 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

2 bunches asparagus, trimmed, cut into 4cm lengths

120g baby rocket

1/2 cup crunchy combo sprouts (see Notes), rinsed

50g low-fat feta, crumbled

Directions:

Preheat oven to 200C or 180C fan-forced. Wash beetroot and pat dry. Place in a baking dish. Cover tightly with foil. Roast for 40 to 45 minutes or until skin peels away from beetroot when rubbed. Set aside until cool enough to handle.

Wearing rubber gloves, peel and halve each beetroot, quartering any larger ones.

Juice 1 mandarin (you'll need 1/4 cup juice). Place juice in a bowl. Add oil. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine.

Place asparagus in a heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water. Stand for 4 minutes or until bright green and tender. Drain. Peel remaining mandarins, removing all the white pith, and divide into segments. Place rocket on a platter. Top with beetroot, asparagus, mandarin, sprouts and fetta. Drizzle with dressing.

Serve.
