INGREDIENTS:
- 2 medium-sized cooked beetroots, preferably golden beetroots
- 1 orange
- A handful of fresh watercress
- Juice of 1/2 orange
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Begin by peeling the beetroots and slicing them into thin rounds. You can use a mandoline or a sharp knife to achieve even slices.
- Arrange the beetroot slices on two separate plates, creating a base for the carpaccio.
- Slice one of the oranges into thin rounds. Arrange the orange slices on top of the beetroot slices, overlapping them to create a visually appealing presentation.
- Drizzle orange juice, olive oil over the beetroot and orange slices, allowing it to infuse the flavors.
- Scatter fresh watercress leaves over the carpaccio, adding a peppery and refreshing element to the dish.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, if desired.
