For a burst of freshness and added texture, scatter fresh pomegranate seeds over this salad. The sweet-tart flavour of pomegranate pairs beautifully with the earthiness of beets and the nutty flavour of chickpeas

1

Cook the beetroots until tender (you can boil or roast them), then peel and chop into quarters.

2

Wash the mixed salad greens and set aside.

3

Drain the chickpeas and rinse well. Add to a bowl. Using a fork, crush about half the chickpeas. Toss with 2 tbsp dukkah spice.

4

Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over a medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the salmon fillets and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.

5

Meanwhile, prepare the dukkah dressing. In a small bowl, mix together 2tbsp olive oil, honey and 2 tbsp dukkah spice. Squeeze in the lemon juice and whisk until well combined. Adjust the seasoning, if necessary.

6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced beetroots, crushed chickpeas and mixed salad greens. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat.

7

Divide the salad between serving plates or bowls. Place a salmon fillet on top of each salad portion and serve.
