Beet Carpaccio with Orange and Goat Cheese Crumbles

[Fivemplarity]

This appetizer is a beautiful and flavorful combination of sweet, salty, and earthy flavors. The thinly sliced beets are marinated in a citrusy orange sauce, then topped with creamy goat cheese crumbles. It's a light and refreshing dish that's perfect for any party or gathering.

Ingredients:

• For the Beet Carpaccio:
  • 2 large red beets, trimmed and peeled
  • 1 navel orange, juiced (about ½ cup)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Fresh arugula, for serving
• For the Goat Cheese Crumbles:
  • 4 ounces goat cheese

Procedure:

1. Make the Orange Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, and cinnamon. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, thinly slice the beets into rounds. The slices should be as thin as possible, ideally translucent.
3. Place the beet slices in a single layer in a shallow dish. Pour the orange marinade over the beets, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, in the refrigerator.
4. While the beets marinate, crumble the goat cheese into small pieces.
5. To assemble the carpaccio, arrange the marinated beet slices on a serving plate. Layer them slightly overlapping for a beautiful presentation.
6. Drizzle the remaining marinade from the bottom of the dish over the beet carpaccio.
7. Top with the crumbled goat cheese.
8. Scatter fresh arugula leaves over the top for a touch of green.
9. Serve immediately and enjoy!

This recipe is a delightful way to showcase the versatility of beets. It's a light, flavorful, and visually stunning appetizer that's sure to impress your guests!
