Harlequin Salad soya, beetroot, carrot

Why not mix cooked and raw vegetables? The combination of crunchy and tender textures is also a great way of ensuring a balanced nutritional intake: vitamins A or C, fibre and so on.

  • 120 g cooked beetroot, diced
  • 120 g fresh grated carrots
  • 1 tbsp soya oil

  • Make the dressing by whisking together the oil, vinegar, water, garlic, herbs, salt and pepper.
  • Add the vegetables to a large salad bowl.
  • Pour over the dressing.
  • Mix briefly.
  • Serve immediately.

Line the individual ramekins with a lettuce leaf and arrange the salad in the centre. Garnish with fresh herbs for an explosion of colours.
