Method
Vegetables
Oven temperature: 200°C
1. Preheat the oven. Remove the beetroot leaves but leave a short piece of stem on each to prevent the red juice from running. Rinse the beetroot and leaves under cold running water. Drain the leaves and refrigerate in a plastic bag. Don't peel the beetroot. Rub with olive oil and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Roast until tender.

2. Prepare the salad dressing: Mix all the ingredients in a glass jar and shake the mixture thoroughly to form an emulsion.

3. Peel the cooled beetroot and quarter it. Place the beetroot and young spinach leaves in a mixing bowl, pour salad dressing over and mix thoroughly with your hands.

4. Place the beetroot leaves on a serving platter and arrange the beetroot quarters, goat's milk cheese and lentils on top. Serve.
