Ingredients

For the salad

3 fennel bulbs, sliced very thinly, preferably done with a mandolin
1 candy beet and golden beet, peeled and thinly sliced
1 small handful red veined sorrel (if not available, substitute for dill)

For the poppyseed dressing

1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1 tablespoon very good olive oil
½ tablespoon cider vinegar
½ tablespoon maple syrup
1 crushed clove smoked garlic

Method

Whisk the dressing ingredients together with a pinch of sea salt, and then check the seasoning, adding more maple syrup or vinegar to balance.

Place the fennel and candy beets in a bowl and coat with the dressing. Assemble onto a plate and scatter over the sorrel. Serve at once, or keep cool in the fridge until ready to eat.
