CITRUS SALAD FOOD & COOKING VIDEO

Colourful Citrusy Salad with a Twist!
Try this delicious and zesty ClemenGold, watercress, beetroot and goats cheese salad

As summer comes to an end and autumn sets in, many of us will be returning to old stodgy meals, but if you’re keen to keep the summer buzz going as long as possible, then why not try this citrusy salad with the superior tasting ClemenGold, fennel, watercress, beetroot and goats cheese.

ClemenGold is a wonderfully sweet, easy-peeling citrus fruit, and with a vibrant orange colour, fragrant aroma, and refreshing, juicy flavour, it is the perfect addition to any salad or chilled as a convenient school snack for kids.

"This is such a vibrant, fresh salad! Beetroot is a fashionable and healthy ingredient in its own right, but the zingy addition of the ClemenGolds makes it very special. This would be great served as a light lunch or a side to grilled Chicken, duck or even fish." Sophie Michell, TV chef and author

In the following video, chef and author Sophie Michell shows you how to create this beautiful salad that will brighten your kitchen table and your palate.
