2. For the slaw, finely slice the beetroot into rounds, then cut into thin matchsticks. Put in a bowl with the carrot, cabbage and red onion. Peel the remaining tangerine and separate into segments, then cut each into thirds. Set everything aside. 3. Turn the grill to high. Put the salmon on a foil-lined baking tray and grill for 5-6 minutes, until opaque and fully cooked through. Toss the shredded vegetables with the remaining dressing, then toss through the pecans and tangerine pieces. Divide the slaw between plates and top with the salmon.
COOK’S TIP A julienne peeler is really useful for making slaws. If you are cutting the vegetables by hand, sharpen your knife first to ensure you get neat, thin slices. Recipe and photo courtesy of Waitrose. Recipes can be found at www.waitrose.com/recipes.
