Beetroot and Herb Salad

September 17, 2016

This article was written for Annabel & Grace, which is now part of Rest Less.

I was introduced to a series of Cookery Books, The Monday Morning Club, via this Beetroot and Herb salad at a friend’s house. The salad is so delicious and, when I looked up the cookery books, I loved the whole concept of a group of six women getting together every Monday morning, in Sydney. Over endless cups of tea, they found recipes with soul, recipes that might be lost, recipes that tell a story of a community: a community where it is always about the food.

Beetroot and Herb Salad

Ingredients serves 10
75g Pistachio nuts chopped
2 lge beetroot, peeled
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
60ml Pomegranate Molasses
2 tspn Rosewater (optional)
Juice of 1 lemon
1 bunch chives, chopped
½ bunch mint, leaves chopped
½ bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves chopped
½ bunch Dill, fronds chopped
Seeds from 1 pomegranate

How to prepare and serve

Toast the pistachio nuts for 5-10 mins in a 160℃ oven or in a frying pan until lightly coloured and fragrant. Allow to cool.

Grate the beetroot into a bowl. Make the dressing by mixing together the olive oil, pomegranate molasses, rosewater and lemon juice in a small bowl or jar, then pour over the beetroot and stir through.

Just before serving toss through the chopped herbs, pistachio nuts and pomegranate seeds.

Your return is in holidays but like most investments, your capital is at risk. You may surrender your investment after two years (subject to deferral), though you will receive less than you invested due to charges and changes in the value of the fund’s assets. Initial payment of £5,000, quarterly fee of under £38 (around £150 annually), can increase in line with but not exceed RPIX, gives access to all HPB holiday homes. For each holiday pay a no-profit user charge covering property maintenance and facility use, average weekly costs around £372 for a studio, £569 for a two-bedroom property. Larger properties also available.
