Roasted Beetroot & Spanish Onion Salad with Almonds

By

The crunch and snap of perfectly fresh produce deserves the simplest of treatments. Leaves, herbs and just-cooked vegetables team brilliantly with meats or seafood, nuts and seeds, unctuous cheese or chewy grains to suit the mood of the season. Crusty, rustic bread, either torn at the table or sliced and toasted, is the only accompaniment needed to create a satisfying lunch, dinner or supper.
