Beetroot Carpaccio

4–5 beetroots, cooked
5 tbsp Steirerkraft Pumpkin Seed Oil PGI
2 tbsp Steirerkraft Apple Balsamic Vinegar
a little horseradish (freshly grated)
salt, pepper

Fried Scarlet Runner Beans

100 g Steirerkraft Styrian scarlet runner beans PDO, ready-to-eat (drained)
4 tbsp flour
1 egg
5 tbsp breadcrumbs
vegetable oil for frying or brushing

Lamb's Lettuce

2 handfuls lamb's lettuce
3 tbsp Steirerkraft Pumpkin Seed Oil PGI
2 tbsp Steirerkraft Apple Vinegar
salt, pepper

Preparation

Cut the cooked beetroots into very thin slices and arrange in a circle on four plates. Marinate with salt, pepper, apple vinegar, and a fine drizzle of Steirerkraft pumpkin seed oil.
Drain and rinse the ready-to-eat scarlet runner beans. Coat them in flour, beaten egg, and breadcrumbs. Brush with a little vegetable oil and air-fry at 180 °C (355 °F) for about 10 minutes, until golden brown. Alternatively, the scarlet runner beans can of course also be pan-fried in hot oil.
Meanwhile, wash and marinate the lamb’s lettuce.
Finally, place the lamb’s lettuce in the centre of the carpaccio, arrange the crispy fried scarlet runner beans on top, and finish with freshly grated horseradish. To finish, drizzle with a few drops of pumpkin seed oil.
