Background

I love this celeriac and beet slaw during the winter months - it’s healthy, tasty and goes so well with cold turkey or salami in a sandwich! It also makes a good filling in wraps and burgers, and it’s a perfect salad at festive parties.

Ingredients

50g walnuts
1 tsp honey
Couple of pinches of cayenne pepper or sweet paprika
1 green apple (Granny Smith)
200g celeriac
1 large beetroot
4 sprigs of spring onion
Juice of half a lemon
For the dressing:
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1.5 tsp grainy mustard
1 tsp honey

Instructions

Dust the walnuts with the paprika or cayenne then dr-fry them in a heavy-based frying pan. While still hot coat them with the honey and cool.
Wash and peel the apple, celeriac and beet, then cut them into matchsticks (or use a food processor with a shredder blade if you have one).
Squeeze the lemon into a bowl of water then put the apple and celeriac into this mixture.
Put the beetroot into a large mixing bowl. Thinly slice the spring onion, then add to the beets.
After 5 minutes or so drain the apple and celeriac. Wrap them in a clean kitchen towel for a couple of minutes, then add to the beet.
Meanwhile toss together the dressing.
Add the honey-walnuts and dressing to the slaw, then season with salt and pepper to your liking.
