Ingredients

For the dehydrated beets

1 large beetroot, peeled and finely sliced

For the chopped salad

1 large golden beetroot, peeled and roughly chopped
1 large carrot, peeled and roughly chopped
1 sharp green apple, cored
2 shallots, peeled and finely chopped
Small bunch of dill
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper
10ml rapeseed oil
100g fresh cheese

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 110°C. Prepare some baking sheets with baking paper and lie the beetroot discs on them. Dehydrate in the oven until crisp and dry for a few hours.

2. To make the chopped salad, combine the beetroot, carrot, apple and shallots in a food processor. Add the dill, lemon juice and rapeseed oil and season with salt and pepper.

3. Blitz for a couple more seconds, until you have a finely chopped salad. Taste for seasoning.

4. To assemble, place a spoonful of the chopped salad on a dehydrated beetroot crisp. Top with a little of the fresh cheese and garnish with dill.
