Beetroot, Pea Shoot and Radish Salad with Burrata Recipe

 

Beetroots are a great source of fibre, Vitamin B9, potassium, iron & vitamin C. Here, it’s paired with creamy burrata, but you could switch for another cheese or have it without for a vegan version.

 

Ingredients

(serves two)

  • 4 x small beetroot, cooked

  • 125g mixed basmati and wild rice

  • 80g pea shoots

  • 8 x French Breakfast radishes, finely sliced

  • ½ red onion, finely sliced

  • chopped fresh herbs: eg dill, chives or parsley

    for the dressing:

  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

  • Pinch of sea salt

Directions

  1. Rinse the rice and then soak in cold water for half an hour.

  3. Drain, cover with the lid and set aside for 5 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, make the dressing by whisking all the ingredients together in a small bowl.

  5. Put the pea shoots, radishes, red onion and rice in a large bowl and toss with half the dressing.

  6. Pile the ingredients onto a serving dish, layering with the beetroot as you do.
