INGREDIENTS
Resting time: Overnight
4 small red beets, roasted or boiled
200g Goats cheese, softened
2 tablespoons honey
3-4 tablespoons Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons balsamic reduction
2 tablespoons groundnut oil
50g chopped and roasted hazelnuts
Mixed leaves to finish
METHOD
Using a mandolin slice the beets very thinly and using a 2 inch diameter cutter, cut into circles. Place on a tray generously lined with paper towel and rest in the fridge overnight.
Mix the softened goats cheese with the honey and add the greek yogurt one tablespoon at a time, mixing until slightly softened but still holding its weight. Put in a piping bag.
Mix the balsamic and groundnut oil well, and dress the mixed leaves and hazelnuts together.
Start to build the Napoleon: starting with 1 beet slice, pipe a bit of goats cheese mixture in a swirling motion, top with another beet slice and press down slightly if the cheese mixture has not made it to the edge. Repeat to create a stack of 6 layers of beet and 5 layers of goat's cheese.
Serve chilled with the dressed mixed leaves and hazelnuts
