This is quick, easy and refreshing salad that took no time at all to whip up. Most of the time I enjoy cooking dinner, even when I cook all day at work. Other times I just want to get it over and done with so I can relax and enjoy the rest of the evening. This salad was definitely made so I could relax and enjoy the rest of the evening and it even turned out pretty good!
I was going to shred all these vegetables on my mandolin but it appeared that my mother has borrowed it. Then I was going to use the grater attachment on the food processor but I couldn't find it. I did however find the slicing attachment so I just went with it as I was running out of options and cutting it by hand wasn't one! Anyway you could use any of the above options and it would work perfectly fine.
I better stop going on and tell you the recipe huh? It's as simple as this!
2 beetroot, peeled
1 carrot, peeled
1 courgette, ends trimmed
1 stick of celey
1/2 a small red onion
a small bunch of dill and parsley, chopped
salt and pepper
Dressing
Juice of one orange
1-2 T red wine vinegar
1-2 T Virgin olive oil
salt and pepper
Cut the vegetables to fit the chute of your food processor and fire them through. Place in a bowl and add the chopped herbs. Mix up the dressing and add to the vegetables. Season and adjust the vinegar if necessary. If it is too sharp add a bit more olive oil.
Serves 2.
We served this with some fresh fish and new potatoes.
