An easy and so delicious salad that accompanies your BBQs (and not only) in the best way!

From the TV cooking programme "Nistiko Arkoudi" (Hungry Bear)

Ingredients (for 6 people):
500gr beetroots (without their green leaves), boiled
1 tea-cup of walnuts, roughly chopped
½ tea-cup of parsley, finely chopped
a pinch of salt

For the yoghurt sauce:
250gr strained Greek yoghurt
150gr mayonnaise
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
2 tbsp of olive oil
a pinch of salt
pepper

Method:

Cut the beetroots in medium size cubes and put them together in a bowl with some of the walnuts, the parsley and a bit of salt. Let them rest in the fridge while you are preparing the sauce.

In the blender add the yoghurt, mayonnaise, garlic, oil, salt, pepper and beat them together until you have a smooth and creamy sauce. Then put the sauce in the fridge for a while.

When you are ready to serve use a salad bowl, place the beetroots in and combine them with some of the yoghurt sauce. Pour the rest of the sauce on the top and sprinkle with the rest of the walnuts.
