This vibrant candy-stripe beetroot and carrot slaw is a visually stunning vegetarian side dish that brings a refreshing crunch to any meal. Using Chioggia beetroot, known for its beautiful pink and white concentric circles, this salad transforms humble root vegetables into a sophisticated accompaniment. The natural sweetness of the beetroot and carrots is perfectly balanced by a zesty dressing made with citrus and fresh dill, providing a light, nutritious alternative to traditional mayonnaise-based coleslaws.

Ideal for summer entertaining or as a quick weekday lunch, this slaw is packed with earthy flavours and creamy Greek-style yoghurt. The combination of orange and lemon juice adds a bright acidity that pairs beautifully with grilled halloumi or roasted chicken. Simple to prepare and naturally healthy, it is an excellent way to enjoy more colourful raw vegetables as part of a balanced diet.
