Ingredients

13 total
  • 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1½ tbsp wholegrain mustard
  • 5 tbsp avocado oil (or rapeseed oil)
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 250g carrots, finely grated
  • ½ lemon, juiced
  • 1 small handful flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked and roughly chopped
  • 250g cooked beetroot, diced into 2 cm cubes
  • 6 red grapes, halved
  • 1 tbsp walnut pieces
  • ½ small shallot, finely diced

Method

4 steps

  1. Step 1

    Begin by making the vinaigrette – this goes with both the salads. Combine the vinegar, salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk until the salt has dissolved. Whisk in the mustard, followed by both the oils and 2 tbsp water; continue whisking until the vinaigrette is thick and emulsified. Pour into a jug and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    To make the carrot salad, pop the carrots, lemon juice and parsley in a serving bowl and toss to combine.

  3. Step 3

    In a separate bowl, toss together the beetroot, grapes, walnuts and shallot to combine.

  4. Step 4

    Serve the salads with the vinaigrette on the side. Leftover vinaigrette will keep in the fridge in an airtight glass jar for up to 1 month.
