Ingredients

  • 250 g / 8 oz canned baby beetroot, halved or quartered if they are large
  • 120 g / 4 oz baby rocket (arugula) leaves
  • 60 g feta (preferably Danish, otherwise Greek), or goats cheese
  • 3 tbsp walnuts, lightly crushed with your fingers
  • 2 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (ordinary, not aged or glazed)
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Black pepper

Steps

  1. Combine the Dressing ingredients in a jar, and shake well. You might need a spoon to break up the honey to mix it in properly. Adjust salt to your taste.
  2. Place rocket lettuce in a serving bowl.
  3. Scatter over beetroot. No need to toss – because of the weight, it should disperse throughout fairly well.
  4. Crumble over the feta and scatter with walnuts.
  5. Drizzle over dressing and serve.
