Notes
Variations: Grill firm fish fillets such as ling or salmon, replace baby beets with segments of orange and add pine nuts for a healthy, refreshing meal. Pan-fry lean Italian-style sausages.
Replace baby beets with 200g cherry or grape tomatoes, halved. Add olives and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
Make your own marinated fetta: Place fetta, peppercorns and dried mixed herbs in a clean jar. Top up with olive oil. Refrigerate for 2 days to allow flavours to develop
