Ingredients

  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) extra-virgin olive oil (reserved from frying)
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) capers
  • 4 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced lengthwise
  • 1 lb (450 g) cooked beets, cut into ½ cm cubes
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) apple cider vinegar
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) mayonnaise
  • 10 ml (2 tsp) Dijon mustard
  • 1 ml (¼ tsp) salt
  • 45 ml (⅓ cup) grapefruit supreme, cut into ½ cm cubes
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) finely chopped cilantro
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) crumbled feta cheese

Preparation

  1. In a small skillet over medium heat, heat the oil with the capers and garlic. Adjust the temperature to keep the oil simmering, for about 8 to 12 minutes, or until the garlic is golden and the capers burst.
  2. Drain and set aside the garlic and capers, separately from the oil.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix the beets, shallot, reserved olive oil, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and salt.
  4. Gently fold in the grapefruit segments into the beet mixture.
  5. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 15 to 45 minutes.
  6. Divide the beet mixture among 4 small plates.
  7. Top each plate with cilantro, crumbled feta cheese, and the fried garlic and caper mixture.
  8. Serve with crusty bread, vegetable chips, or enjoy as a fresh salad. Enjoy!
