Beetroot curry

“The dressing can be kept in the fridge in a sealed jar for a week. I like to keep the bean brine in a sealed jar in the fridge or freezer to add to soups, or use instead of egg white in summer cocktails.”
1. To make the vinaigrette, pulse the ingredients in a blender to emulsify but don’t make it too smooth.
2. Mix the beans and parsley. Arrange the tomatoes on a platter and spoon over the beans.
3. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and allow to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to infuse. Season before serving.
Cook's note: Serve this hearty salad with peri-peri chicken wings. If you have canned chickpeas in your pantry, drain and mix with the butter beans.
