Ingredients

Dressing

  • 1⁄2-inch piece of fresh ginger root
  • Juice of 2 large oranges
  • 2 1⁄2 fl. oz non-pasteurized apple juice
  • 1 1⁄2 fl. oz lime juice

Salad

  • 6 carrots, peeled and grated
  • 3 medium beetroots (beets),
  • peeled and grated
  • 1 small fennel bulb, very thinly sliced
  • 2 oz mixed bean sprouts
  • 3 1⁄2 oz sultanas (golden raisins)
  • 1 oz sunflower seeds, toasted
  • 1 oz pumpkin seeds, toasted
  • 2 fl. oz extra-virgin olive oil
  • Handful of cilantro leaves, to garnish

Equipment

  • Juicer (optional)
  • Mandoline (optional)

Directions

  1. To make dressing, peel and finely dice ginger. Using the flat side of a knife, press down on ginger pieces to release any excess juice. (Alternatively, if you have a juicing machine, peel and juice ginger.) Put diced or juiced ginger into a small jar along with remainder of dressing ingredients, pop jar’s lid on, and shake well.
  2. Assemble all salad ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Toss together well. Drizzle over dressing and serve, garnished with cilantro leaves.

Notes

  • For those of you who own a mandoline, use it here to cut your fennel into perfect paper-thin slices. Just be careful of your fingers!
