  • 100g white wine vinegar
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 2 medium beetroot
    topped, tailed and peeled
  • 150g soft goat’s cheese
  • 1 lemon
    zested and juiced
  • a small bunch flat-leaf parsley
    finely chopped
  • a handful walnuts
    toasted and chopped

    Method

    • step 1

      Put the vinegar, sugar, 100ml of water and a little seasoning into a small pan and heat until the sugar dissolves.

    • step 2

      Use a mandoline or sharp knife to cut very thin slices of beetroot, then put into a bowl and pour over the hot pickling liquid. Cool to room temperature, then chill for 2 hours.

    • step 3

      Put the goat’s cheese into a bowl and use a wooden spoon to beat until smooth. Stir in the lemon zest and juice, parsley, salt and plenty of pepper.

    • step 4

      Drain the beetroot slices really well and pat dry with kitchen paper. Spoon or pipe a little of the filling onto one half of each beetroot slice, add a little walnut, then fold over gently. Repeat with the remaining slices and filling.
