Avocado tartine with golden beet
This Avocado Tartine with Golden Beet combines the smooth, rich texture of sliced avocado with the earthy sweetness of roasted golden beet. The layered presentation on toasted rustic bread is brightened by a fresh dill vinaigrette and accented with crisp pea shoots. A poached or fried egg on top adds richness and protein, making it a balanced, visually appealing open-faced sandwich.

Ingredients
For the vinaigrette/dressing
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon honey or sugar
- 1 teaspoon dill chopped, fresh
For rest of tartine
- ½ golden beet med-large, cooked and cooled (see notes)
- 2 lices bread eg pain de campagne, sourdough
- 1 egg to top, or use 2, optional, poached
- ½ avocado
- 1 handful pea shoots
Instructions
- Whisk together all of the vinaigrette/dressing ingredients in a small bowl and set aside (you can also prepare ahead and store in fridge a day or two then re-mix when ready to use)
- Peel and slice the beet and cut the circles in half. Toast the bread and poach the eggs, if adding. Peel the avocado half, keeping the whole piece of avocado intact so you can then slice it across the way.
- Drizzle a small amount of the vinaigrette on the toasted slices of bread. Lay slices of avocado and beet on top in alternate 'stripes', slightly overlapping. Top with a small handful of pea shoots and the egg(s), if using. Drizzle over the rest of the vinaigrette and enjoy.

Notes
- Roast the whole golden beet, skin on and wrapped in foil, at 400°F (200°C) for about 45 minutes or until tender when pierced with a knife.
- Allow the vinaigrette to be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for a day or two; re-mix well before using.
