BOIL THE BEETS
Place the Beetroot in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 25-30 minutes. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process.
CHEESE CRISPS
Place a non-stick pan over low-medium heat. Take small spoonfuls of grated cheese (about 1 tbsp each) and flatten them into thin circles directly in the pan. Leave a little space between each circle, they’ll spread slightly. Let them cook until turning golden and the cheese melts, 2-3 minutes. Flip them quickly to crisp the other side until golden, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and place on a plate to cool (don't stack them).
CRISPY Capers
Pat dry the Capers with a paper towel. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). Fry the capers until they puff up slightly and turn golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.
CARPACCIO & SOME PREP
Cut the Beetroot into thin rounds. Add a squeeze of lemon juice (to taste) and seasoning. Toss to combine and set aside. Loosen the creamy horseradish sauce with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
TIME TO EAT
Lay the beet slices on a plate, forming a circular pattern if desired, and top with the Cucumber slices in the same arrangement. Place the salad leaves in the centre, then scatter the trout and crispy capers over the top. Squeeze over any remaining lemon juice (to taste), drizzle with the creamy horseradish sauce, and garnish with the crispy Italian-style cheese. Garnish with a sprinkle of the lemon zest. Dig in, Chef!
