The most simple, yet, the very elegant & aesthetically appealing salad, where the sweetness competes with the tang of the oranges & finally the nutty flavor wins & seals the deal.
Sounds interesting?? Read on..

Preparation Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:


  • Beetroot: 2 (peeled & grated)
  • Orange: 1 (sliced in halves)
  • Hazelnuts: 8-10 ( rough chops)


Dressing:


  • Olive oil: 2 tsp
  • Yellow mustard paste: 1/2 tsp
  • Soy Sauce: 3-5 drops
  • Lemon juice:1/2 tsp
  • Salt: to taste 
  • Cumin Powder - 2 pinches
  • Black Pepper Powder: 1/4 tsp


Method: 

First make the dressing with the above ingredients & mix it with the grated beetroot.

Now place this on your palate with the sliced halves of the oranges on it.

Now drizzle the flakes of hazelnuts on top of the platter to finish of your very appetizing beet salad..



A few tips:

  • Beetroot must be ripe so you get a really nice sweet flavor from it.
  • If you roast the hazelnuts and use them it would make your salad more crunchier and nutty.
