Beet, Rhubarb, and Orange Salad

Ingredients for Beet, Rhubarb, and Orange Salad

• 8 2- to 2 1/2-inch-diameter red or yellow beets, 4 of each colour if available

• 60ml de aceite de oliva virgen extra, dividido

• Sal kosher gruesa

• 725 ml de agua

• 120ml de azúcar

• 450g trimmed rhubarb stalks, cut diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices

• 3 large oranges

• 2 cucharadas de vinagre de arroz sin sazonar

• 1 cucharada de jugo de limón fresco

• 1 cucharada de chalota picada

• 1 cucharadita de miel

• 3 cups watercress sprigs

• 1 1/4 cups coarsely crumbled feta cheese (about one 200g package)

• Fresh chervil leaves (optional)

Preheat oven to 204°C. Place beets on large sheet of foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil; sprinkle with coarse salt. Wrap beets in foil. Roast beets until tender when pierced with fork, about 1 hour. Unwrap and cool beets. Peel, then cut each into 8 wedges.

Bring 725ml water, 120ml sugar, and pinch of coarse salt to simmer in large saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Add rhubarb. Simmer over medium heat until just tender but still intact, 1 to 2 minutes (do not overcook or rhubarb will be mushy). Using slotted spoon, transfer rhubarb to platter and cool completely. DO AHEAD: Beets and rhubarb can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.

Finely grate enough peel from 1 orange to measure 1/2 teaspoons ; transfer to small bowl and reserve for dressing. Cut off peel and white pith from all oranges. Working over medium bowl to catch juice and using small sharp knife, cut between membranes to release orange segments into bowl; squeeze membranes to release juice into bowl. Transfer 2 tablespoons orange juice to bowl with orange peel. Whisk vinegar, lemon juice, shallot, honey, and remaining 45ml olive oil into bowl with orange peel and orange juice mixture. Season dressing with coarse salt and pepper.

Arrange watercress, beets, rhubarb, and orange segments on 6 plates. Sprinkle with feta and drizzle with dressing. Garnish with chervil leaves, if desired, and serve.
