Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 1 bag of lamb’s lettuce (150g)
  • 1 pack of feta cheese (200g)
  • 1 large beetroot (approx. 250g), vacuum-packed
  • ½ lemon(s)
  • 1 handful of walnuts (approx. 100g)
  • 1 tbsp sugar, for caramelizing
  • 50 ml olive oil, good
  • ½ lemon(s), juice
  • e.g. buttermilk
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes

with a light lemon vinaigrette

Wash and spin the lamb’s lettuce. Cut the beetroot and feta into 1 cm cubes and add to the lamb’s lettuce. Caramelize the sugar in a pan and toss the walnuts in it. Then pour the vinaigrette ingredients over the salad and mix lightly with your hands. Finally, scatter the caramelized walnuts over the salad. Add half a lemon so everyone can spice up their portion to taste. If it’s too acidic, you can balance it out with a little buttermilk. This is a great salad that’s perfect as a starter for at least 4 people or as a main course for 2. Arugula works well instead of lamb’s lettuce.
