Ingredients For Beetroot carrot shorba on roasted pumpkin fennel salad Recipe

Methods
  • 1. Beetroot carrot shorba- 1. Heat oil in a pan and add the bay leaves, cumin and ginger and sautĂ© for a minute.Add the chopped carrots and betroots alongwith the green chillies and cook for 5 minutes. Add water,bring to a boil, season with cumin ,cool it and puree .
  • 2. Beetroot carrot shorba- 2.Adjust the seasoning and strain.Heat and check seasoning ,a bit extra would be good as we have to do food spherication.
  • 3. Making the Shorba Caviar (small balls)- Keep in hand a new syringe without needle.Before you begin, keep a big bowl of water for chilling in the freezer .Also keep any flavourless oil in a glass length tall jar in the freezer.The oil becomes cloudy as it becomes more viscous.
  • 4. Making the Shorba Caviar (small balls)- 1.Take Two cups of the strained Shorba ,add 1 table spoon Agar Agar and bring the mix to a boil with constant stirring preferably with a whisk.
  • 5. Making the Shorba Caviar (small balls)- 2.Fill the syringe with the Shorba.Take care to dip the syringe fully into the shorba to avoid air bubbles.
  • 6. Making the Shorba Caviar (small balls)- Very carefully let small drops fall from bethe syringe into the chilled oil.The droplets immediately shape themselves into small spheres and remain suspended for a few moments then float and gather at the bottom of the jar.(That is beautiful science in action)
  • 7. Making the Shorba Caviar (small balls)- Make a good enough lot and then pour them into a seive carefully and delicately.Dip the seive with the caviar in chilled water to eash it immediately . The extra oil is clearly seen suspended on top of the chilled water. Store the caviar delicately in a bowl.
  • 8. The Roasted Pumpkin Fennel Salad1. Prepare the pumpkin,apple,lettuce leaves by chopping/tearing/shredding into big pieces an inch or 1 and a 1/2 inch long.Chop the fennel leaves finely(you can use other herbs too if you don't get fennel leav es).
  • 9. The Roasted Pumpkin Fennel Salad2. Brush the pumpkin pieces on all sides with butter and some rock salt & black pepper. Roast them till golden brown in air fryer or OTG. I used the airfryer at 200deg for the first 15 -20 minutes then had to keep a watch and check every 5 min.
  • 10. The Roasted Pumpkin Fennel Salad3.In the meanwhile prepare the vinaigrette by shaking together the extra virgin olive oil,apple cider vinegar,honey,mustard, a bit of rock salt and pepper. Adjust the seasoning.
  • 11. The Roasted Pumpkin Fennel Salad4. Roast the pumpkin seeds and almond silvers on a tava or air fryer.
  • 12. 5. Toss all the ingredients together just before eating with the vinaigrette.Shift the salad to a big bowl and top it fully with the Shorba caviar.
