  • 1 Preheat the oven to 200°C, 180°C fan, Gas Mark 6.
  • 2 Put the beetroot on an oven tray with the garlic and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place the tray in oven and cook for 35-40 mins until soft. Set aside to cool.
  • 3 Meanwhile, chop the stems and leaves and quickly fry in 1 tablespoon of olive oil along with lemon juice, and garlic. Keep the stems at the bottom of the pan. Add a dash of water and cook gently, covered, for 3- 5 mins. Set aside to cool.
  • 4 Place the cooled beetroot stems and leaves in a large mixing bowl. Add the chickpeas and the Hellmann’s Honey Mustard Dressing.
  • 5 Fold the cooled beetroot into the salad.
  • 6 Serve topped with cherry tomatoes and coriander leaves. 
Tip: would be great with goats cheese and mint instead of coriander and served on a bed of salad leaves. For quickness use ready cooked beetroot. 
Optional extra: serve with orange slices for a citrus twist!
