Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Roast the Beets

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap each beet in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for about 45-60 minutes, or until a fork easily pierces through. Let cool, then peel and slice.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Fennel and Onion

    Thinly slice the fennel bulb and red onion. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Port Wine Reduction

    In a small saucepan, bring the port wine to a boil over medium heat. Reduce to a simmer and let it reduce by half, stirring occasionally. This should take about 15-20 minutes. Once thickened, remove from heat and let cool.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the roasted beets, sliced fennel, and red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the arugula, top with the beet mixture, and crumble goat cheese on top. Drizzle with the port wine reduction before serving.
