Beet Fennel And Watercress Salad Recipes

FENNEL AND WATERCRESS SALAD

Steps:

• In a large salad bowl, combine the watercress, fennel, radicchio and pecans. Stir the vinaigrette and pour over salad. Toss well and serve at once.

WATERCRESS SALAD WITH RAW BEETS AND RADISHES

Steps:

• Season the beets: Slice red beet as thinly as possible with a mandoline or sharp knife and place in a small bowl. Slice golden beet and place in a separate bowl. Season each bowl with salt and pepper, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest. Toss and leave to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
• Make the horseradish cream: Put crème fraîche in a small serving bowl. Add horseradish, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 teaspoon lemon zest. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Make the salad: Place watercress in a low salad bowl or serving platter. Arrange seasoned beet slices over the cress and drizzle with any remaining lemon juice. Scatter radish slices over the salad and garnish with quartered or halved eggs. Sprinkle salad very lightly with salt. Serve the horseradish cream separately and add a spoonful to each serving.

FENNEL AND WATERCRESS SALAD

Add the watercress to the remaining dressing, toss it until it is just coated well, and divide it between 2 plates, mounding the fennel in the middle.

BEET AND FENNEL SALAD WITH GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice off the beet leaves close to the tip of the beet. Discard the beet greens. Scrub the beets thoroughly, and then loosely wrap each one in foil.
• Transfer the wrapped beets to baking sheet lined with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Roast for 50-60 minutes. Check the beets every 20 minutes or so. If they are starting to look dry or are scorching on the bottoms, dribble a tablespoon of water over the beets before rewrapping. Beets are done when a fork or skewer slides easily to the middle of the beet.
• Cool the beets until they can comfortably be handled. Hold one of the beets in a paper towel and use the edges to rub the skin away. The skin should peel away easily; if it doesn't, the beets likely need to cook for a little longer. Slice the peeled beets into wedges.
• Combine the beet wedges, mache, goat cheese, avocado, and shaved fennel on a large serving platter and drizzle with basil vinaigrette. Sprinkle the pepitas on top and serve immediately.
