Tom Kerridge’s vibrant salad is featured on his TV show, and accompanying book, Tom Kerridge Cooks Britain. Give it a go yourself at home, and tune into ITV to see more recipes from the show. “There are so many ways to enjoy the earthy flavour of magnificent beetroot,” says Tom, who visits the beetroot farm himself on the show. “If you can get them fresh from the ground, there’s a feeling of connection with Mother Nature. Crumbled feta goes brilliantly with beetroot here, and the liberal use of fresh herbs gives the salad vibrancy".

Hide images
step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C Fan/Gas 6.
step 2
Peel the beetroot (4) and cut into wedges. Place on a small oven tray and drizzle with the olive oil (1 tbsp) and pomegranate molasses (1 tbsp). Sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast in the oven for 40 minutes or until the beetroot wedges are tender, turning them halfway through.
step 3
Meanwhile, heat the stock (400 ml) in a medium saucepan, tip in the bulgur wheat (200 g) and stir well. Bring to a simmer, put the lid on the pan and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the heat off and leave to finish cooking in the residual heat for 15 minutes. Remove the lid and fork through the grains.
step 4
Tip the bulgur wheat into a large bowl and leave to cool down. Once cooled, add the chopped dill (1 handful), chopped mint leaves (1 handful), chopped flat leaf parsley (1 handful) and the crumbled feta (100 g) and fork through.
step 5
To make the dressing, put the olive oil (3 tbsp), mustard (1 tsp), red wine vinegar (2 tbsp) and pomegranate molasses (1 tbsp) into a small bowl, season well with salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Pour the dressing over the bulgur wheat and mix well. Taste to check the seasoning and adjust as necessary.
step 6
Remove the roasted beetroot from the oven and leave to cool slightly, then toss half of it through the salad.
step 7
Spoon the bulgur wheat salad onto a platter and top with the remaining roasted beetroot to serve. Recipe from Tom Kerridge Cooks Britain: a Journey Through the Best of British Food (£25, Bloomsbury), available online at Ocado and in selected M&S stores.
