Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Carrot
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 small to medium Beet
- 10 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 5 stalks Chives
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Peel the carrot and use a vegetable peeler or mandolin to create long, thin ribbons. These will form a delicate petal-like texture.
Repeat the same process with the zucchini, peeling it into long ribbons. Lightly salt the ribbons and let them rest for 5 minutes to soften slightly.
Using the beet, create small discs or spirals by slicing it thinly with a sharp knife or a mandolin. These will serve as vibrant accents.
Rinse the salt off the zucchini ribbons and pat them dry with paper towels.
Lay the carrot and zucchini ribbons flat. Roll each ribbon loosely to mimic a floral rose shape.
Arrange the ribbons and beet slices artistically on your plate as a garnish, grouping them to resemble a bouquet.
Tuck fresh mint leaves and chive stalks between the ribbons for an aromatic, herbal accent.
Sprinkle the lemon zest lightly over the garnish and finish with a tiny drizzle of olive oil for a touch of shine and flavor.
Serve this floral-inspired garnish on top of salads, grilled proteins, or as a stand-alone decorative element for a styled dish.
