- Pre-heat oven to 180c
- Roll out the dough and wrap the beetroot
- Bake at 180c for 45 mins, make sure you leave a small hole in the pastry (they can explode if not!)
- Remove from the oven. Cut off the dough. Use the back of a knife to take the skin off the beetroot and cut it to shape.
- Cut the red onions from top to bottom and spread on a baking tray season with sea salt, pepper, olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
- Bake for 20mins until caramelised and soft.
- Cut your JAZZ™ Apples into nice chunks and remove the core,
- Place the JAZZ™ Apples, red onions, beetroot, walnuts, greens, and a splash of balsamic, in a bowl and toss together.
- Transfer to your serving bowl, drizzle a little honey over the top, crumble the goat’s cheese and sprinkle on top. Season and serve.
