STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 400F. Wash beets without peeling and wrap each one separately in foil. Roast beets for 1 hour or until they're tender enough to pierce easily with a knife. Set them aside to cool off.

2

Peel three medium-sized Pixie tangerines and cut sideways into slices. Set aside in a bowl.

3

Using a sharp knife, make little moons (cut lengthwise) out of two Cara Caras and remove any peel and white pithe. Remove the thin skin around the segments and place the exposed citrus pieces in a bowl.

4

Place the sliced Pixie tangerines, sliced Cara Cara and Cara Cara segments in a bowl together and dress with the Meyer lemon juice.

5

Once the beets are cool enough to handle, slice 2 beets across into rounds. Slice the other 2 beets into wedges. Using a sharp knife, cut the fennel very thinly crosswise. Repeat the same step for the onion.

6

Strain the Pixie tangerines and Cara Cara juices and set aside. Arrange the sliced Pixies and Cara Caras on the plate, placing the fennel and onions on top.

7

Drizzle the salad with the citrus juice set aside earlier, dipping the Cara Cara into the beet color for effect. Dress with extra-virgin olive oil to preference. Season with kosher salt or any other coarse sea salt and freshly ground pepper.

8

Garnish with cilantro or fresh mint.
