200g tiger prawns, shell off 80g baby spinach 80g brown dried lentils

1 lemon 80g almond yogurt 1 tbsp horseradish paste 1 apple

200g beetroot 5tsp sunflower oil

Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9. Trim, peel and cut the

beetroot into 2cm wedges. Dice the potato into 2cm cubes. Place both (keeping

them separate) on a lined baking tray, drizzle with 1/2 tbsp oil and season with

sea salt and black pepper. Roast for 20-25 mins until soft.

Step 2

Boil a kettle. Heat a medium saucepan filled with salted boiling water on high

heat. Add the lentils and boil for 20-25 mins, until cooked, then drain.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the yogurt, horseradish, a squeeze of lemon

juice (to taste) and a pinch of sea salt.

Step 4

Heat a large frying pan with 1/2 tbsp oil on a high heat. Add the prawns and

cook for 2-3 mins, until pink and cooked through. Take them off the heat,

season with sea salt and give them a good squeeze of lemon juice.

Step 5

Core and roughly dice the apple into 1cm cubes. Keeping the prawns in the

frying pan, toss them with the apple, cooked lentils, half the yogurt, 2 tsp

olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Step 6

Just before serving, roughly chop the spinach and toss it through the prawn

salad. Serve onto plates, place the beetroot on top and spoon over the

remaining horseradish yogurt.
