Ingredients
1 large beetroot
2 tsp fennel seeds
6 pitted dates
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Method
- I toasted my fennel seeds in my cast iron skillet to help release aroma and essential oils from the seeds.
- I let my toasted fennel seeds cool, whilst I peeled and grated my beetroot.
- I chopped the dates and added them to my grated beetroot along with the cooled toasted fennel seeds
- I then added some olive oil, apple cider vinegar and black pepper to help balance the sweet earthy flavors in this salad.
- I teamed my beetroot salad with some spinach, tomato, cucumber and feta.
Perfect for lunch on this hot day.
