beetroot and pickled walnut salad with minted yoghurt
serves 2
2 generous handfuls of rocket (arugula)
4 pre-cooked beetroot (beet), finely sliced
2 tablespoons pickled walnuts, drained of excess vinegar
handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley
For the minted yoghurt 2 fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
4 tablespoons unsweetened soya yoghurt
pinch of sea salt
The earthy flavours of beetroot and pickled walnuts are brought together with a fresh and creamy vegan minted yoghurt dressing in this simple salad.
Lay out the rocket on a large serving plate. Lay the beetroot onto the bed of rocket. Spoon over the pickled walnuts and tear over the parsley.
To make the minted yoghurt, add the mint to a bowl with the soya yoghurt and sea salt. Stir to combine.
Spoon the yoghurt over the salad and serve immediately.
You’ll find pre-cooked beetroot in vacuum-sealed packs in all supermarkets, which will save you lots of preparation and cooking time.
