Prepare the beetroot & carrot: Peel both the beetroot and carrot and either grate, spiralize or julienne them. Julienne or spiralize is preferred as grating can make the veg a bit too fine and the salad mushy. I use a
mandoline slicer, but you can use a
julienne peeler,
spiralizer or even a food processer with the appropriate disc attached - whatever works for you. If you're handy with a chefs knife - feel free to chop as you please. You can also buy packets of pre-shredded carrots and beetroot at the supermarket, but fresh is always best if you can. I find the beetroot especially is often very dry in those pre julienned packs.
