This gorgeous looking plate might be show stealer at your christmas party. It is so simple and great looking. Beetroot and Mozarella are two very mild flavours and so the secret of this dish is to crete an acidity with beetroot which will compensate a very mild flavour of cheese.
For simple dishes like this always use the best quality ingredients you can find.
Ps. Salad on above picture was prepared for two persons using small plate of 22 cm
Have fun this Christmas season.
