  • 150g/5½oz plain yoghurt

  • 2 tsp honey

Method

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.

  3. Place a small frying pan over a low heat and toast the nuts and cumin seeds for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool in the pan.

  4. Peel and cut the beetroot into 2cm/1in cubes and place in a large, glass bowl. Stir in the apple, nuts, seeds and herbs.

  5. To make the dressing, mix the ingredients together in a bowl. Just before serving, dress the salad and mix well.
