ROASTED BEET, PEAR AND FETA SALAD



Roasted Beet, Pear and Feta Salad image

I cut this salad recipe out of a weekly local newspaper the other day and haven't had the chance to test it. I would like to try golden beets for the red beets. If you cannot find mache (lamb's lettuce), substitute butter lettuce or fresh mixed greens. Serve with crusty French bread!

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 teaspoon cumin seeds
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons Sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup plus 3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound baby carrots with 1/2" of tops attached, peeled
6 small (1 1/2" diameter) red beets, scrubbed, trimmed leaving 2" of stem attached
3/4 cup (lightly packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves, divided
1/2 cup crumbled feta (about 4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Stir cumin seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, 3-4 minutes. Let cool. Finely grind in a spice mill.
  • Whisk cumin, lemon juice, vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup oil, then mint. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
  • Cook carrots in a large pot of boiling salted water for 1 minute; using a slotted spoon, transfer carrots to a bowl. Add beets to same pot of boiling water and cook until just tender, 20-25 minutes. Drain. Let stand at room temperature to cool slightly, about 15 minutes. Peel and trim beets; halve lengthwise. DO AHEAD: Vinaigrette and vegetables can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately; chill. Return vinaigrette to room temperature and whisk before using.
  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Season carrots with salt and pepper. Toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil. Arrange on half of a large rimmed baking sheet. Place beets in same bowl; season with salt and pepper and toss with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil. Arrange in single layer opposite carrots on same baking sheet. Roast vegetables, turning once, until slightly charred and just tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Place carrots, 1/2 cup parsley leaves, and feta in a medium bowl; drizzle 1/4 cup vinaigrette over and toss to coat. Arrange carrot mixture on a small platter. Place beets in another medium bowl. Add 2 tablespoons vinaigrette; toss to coat. Tuck beets in among carrots. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup parsley leaves over. Drizzle with remaining dressing.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, choose ripe, firm pears. Bosc or Anjou pears are good options.
  • To roast the beets, you can either wrap them in foil or toss them with olive oil and roast them directly on a baking sheet.
  • If you're short on time, you can also use pre-cooked beets.
  • Feel free to add other ingredients to the salad, such as walnuts, pecans, or goat cheese.
  • For a tangy dressing, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, and Dijon mustard.

Conclusion:

This roasted beet, pear, and feta salad is a delicious and healthy side dish or main course. It's perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it's also great for potlucks and picnics. The combination of sweet pears, earthy beets, and salty feta cheese is simply irresistible. So next time you're looking for a new salad to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed.
