Feta, Lamb and Beetroot Salad

Feta, Lamb and Beetroot Salad

A lovely lamb based salad with beetroot, feta cheese and walnuts.

Recipe ingredients

3-4 medium beetroot
500 g lamb fillet
150 g feta cheese
3 cups rocket leaves
½ cup walnuts, toasted
1-2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

Cooking Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 160 °C. Wash and trim the beetroot and chop into quarters.

  • Place the beetroot in a baking dish along with a drizzle of olive oil then cover with foil. Bake for 1 hour or until the beetroot is tender.

  • Make sure the lamb is at room temperature then brush with oil, season with salt and ground black pepper.

  • Heat a frying pan or grill and cook lamb over high heat for 4-5 minutes until well browned on both sides. This will give medium rare meat.

  • Remove lamb from the pan and set aside to rest for about 5 minutes.

  • Arrange the rocket on a serving platter then toss through the walnuts, crumbled feta cheese and beetroot. Slice the lamb diagonally into 1 cm thick slices.

  • Arrange lamb slices over the salad and drizzle with dressing.
