Recipe


Ingredients

  • ¼ cup pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • Good pinch sea salt
  • 3 medium-sized beetroots (try to get three different colours), peeled & sliced thinly
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • A few sprigs parsley, leaves picked from stems

  • Dressing
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Juice ½ lemon
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp horseradish cream

Method


  • Roast pumpkin seeds on tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with maple syrup and sea salt. Toss to coat.
  • Pop under moderate grill for 10 mins or so. Watch carefully so they don't burn, tossing every few minutes.
  • Arrange beetroot slices on large plate.
  • Make dressing by combining all ingredients in small bowl or jar. Drizzle over beetroot and allow to sit for at least 10 mins (to infuse beetroot with flavour).
  • Once pumpkin seeds are toasted, allow to cool.
  • Sprinkle pumpkin seeds, feta and parsley over beetroot.
