Kitchen tool
For this vegan beetroot carpaccio recipe, I love using my mandolin to get those perfect, thin beetroot slices – it’s a game-changer for dishes like this carpaccio or homemade veggie chips! If you don’t have one, consider investing, as they’re quite affordable. Just remember to use the hand guard religiously (this is for my friend Caroline, who wasn’t careful enough), as they’re incredibly sharp.
But don’t worry, a sharp knife can also achieve beautiful results for this vegan recipe.
Vegetarian variation for this colorful beetroot carpaccio
This vibrant beetroot carpaccio is a fantastic centerpiece for a vegan meal, highlighting the natural sweetness of the beets.
However, its versatility shines through – a sprinkle of crumbled feta or shaved parmesan adds a delightful savory contrast for those who enjoy dairy.
