Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad

This roasted beetroot and goat's cheese salad is a vibrant celebration of earthy flavours and contrasting textures. Using a mix of red and golden beetroot provides a striking visual appeal, while roasting them in foil ensures they remain succulent and sweet. The addition of thinly shaved fennel and vine-ripened tomatoes adds a crisp freshness that balances the richness of the creamy cheese and the deep, savoury notes of the sesame-spiced dressing.

As a versatile vegetarian dish, this salad works beautifully as a sophisticated starter for a dinner party or a nutritious, light lunch. It is naturally gluten-free and packed with antioxidants, making it a healthy choice that doesn't compromise on flavour. Serve it alongside some crusty sourdough bread to soak up the delicious honey and sherry vinegar vinaigrette.
