Roast beetroot with whipped fetta, pecans and pomegranate dressing

Roast beetroot with whipped fetta, pecans and pomegranate dressing

A great side has three essentials: brilliant colour, layers of flavour, and a little crunch. This dish has it all in abundance, with purple and golden beets roasted with red onions on a bed of creamy whipped fetta, spiced toasted pecans, and a sweet and citrussy pomegranate dressing. It's a show-off in the best way.  

To Serve

Great with juicy roast lamb, slow-roasted pork shoulder or part of a grand Christmas spread.
