Beetroot is in season here, and so I decided to share with you a lovely and colorful recipe of Roasted Beetroot Salad.

This salad is simple and easy to make, and it tastes great. I have chopped the beetroots in wedges and roasted them using light olive oil and garlic cloves on a pan. Once cooked, season them with some salt and crushed peppercorns. Roasting will bring the natural sweetness and nutritional benefits of beetroot.

Roasted Beetroot Salad

 

I have always loved beetroot since my childhood. Its dark red-maroon color always attracts me. It pairs up nicely as a salad during my meals, in sandwiches and soups. Roasted beetroot salad has an earthy flavor. It is a very flavourful, gluten-free, and easy vegetarian dish. Beetroot is a superfood that is high in fiber. It keeps the heart healthy and solves digestion issues. It is rich in folate, which helps to fight against anemia and keeps you energized the whole day. Olive oil is rich in Vitamin E, which is good for healthy skin. What a great combo of benefits, right?

Variations you can try with this Roasted Beetroot Salad :

  • You can add a few chopped nuts like peanuts, almonds, walnuts, or cashews if you like crunch in the salad.
  • Alternatively, you can bake the beetroot wedges in the oven for 5 min at 180-degree celsius instead of roasting.
  • It tastes delicious as well.
  • If you like tangy flavor, add a few splashes of fresh lemon juice just before serving.
  • You can add a few soft paneer or cheese cubes for new taste variation and creamy finish.
