Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 10 min.

Spread ¼ cup cashew nuts on a baking sheet and toast in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10 minutes.

After this time, take out of the oven and leave to cool, then chop coarsly.

Set aside.

Stage 3 - 8 min.

Peel and grate ¾ cup raw beetroot and put into a bowl.

Stage 4 - 3 min.

Rinse and finely chop ½ spring onion (scallion), then add to the bowl.

Stage 5 - 7 min.

Cut ½ cup bread into small cubes and fry with 1 tablespoon olive oil in a frying pan.

Stage 6 - 1 min.

Tip into the bowl, add the cashew nuts and 3 tablespoons French dressing (vinaigrette), then mix well.

Stage 7

Your salad is ready and "in the pink".

Remarks

If you are making this in a hurry, just add the cashew nuts raw to the salad, though it will lack the crunch of the toasted nuts.

Keeping

1 or 2 hours in the fridge. Still good after, though it will start to go soft.
