This salad has a really nice combination of flavors as well as textures. Hot, sweet, sour, tender and crunchy is what you will find here. I'm thinking some nice goat cheese would have been a fabulous addition for the taste but also for the contrast of colors. Unfortunately, I was out, but if you have some in your fridge, go ahead and sprinkle a few crumbles...I'm sure it will be good. You can let me know...Serves 2
Ingredients
1 big fresh beet, boiled until tender and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
3/4 cup, dried mission fig cut in half
1/2 cup pine nuts
1 hand full fresh flat parsley, chopped
2 tablespoon dark balsamic vinegar
4 tablespoons of sweet chile sauce
Salt
Directions
Mix everything together and transfer to a serving platter
p.s. you might need to adjust the proportion of balsamic vinegar and chile sauce to your likings. It might be a good idea to mix it in a separate bowl first, start with 2 balsamic for 4 chile sauce and adjust slowly.
