Preparation steps

1.

Wash the beets and steam for about 50 minutes, until tender. Allow to cool slightly. 

2.

Rinse and drain the lentils. Bring the vegetable broth to a boil, add the lentils, reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly. 

3.

Peel the shallots and slice thinly. Whisk together the apple cider vinegar and 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt, pepper and sugar to taste. Peel the beets and cut into bite-sized pieces. Combine the beets and lentils in a large bowl, toss with the dressing and let stand for about 20 minutes. 

4.

Rinse the parsley, pat dry, remove the leaves and roughly chop. Add the parsley to the salad and mix well. Arrange the salads on plates and crumble the feta cheese over the top. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and serve.
