It's quite an adaptable recipe. Carrot and beetroot are, of course, essential, otherwise you can experiment with different flavours.
Two small beetroot and two medium carrots, both peeled and roughly grated
A tablespoonful of plump raisins soaked for 30 mins in hot water, then drained
Any of the following (but probably not all), lightly toasted in a dry pan and allowed to cool
Flaked almonds (tablespoonful)
Pine nuts (tablespoonful)
Sesame seeds (teaspoonful)
Cumin seeds (teaspoonful)
Sunflower seeds (tablespoonful)
A heaped teaspoonful of ground cumin or ground coriander
A dash of chili sauce
A good lot of extra virgin olive oil
Half a tablespoonful of red wine/cider vinegar
Juice of half a lemon
Mix all together in a bowl topped with chopped coriander, mint or parsley and serve
