Step-by-step

  1. To make the dressing, combine all the ingredients in a food processor or blender, then set aside.
  2. To toast the pine nuts and sesame seeds, heat a small frying pan over a medium heat, add the pine nuts and seeds, and dry-fry, stirring until lightly golden.
  3. Put the carrots, beetroots, courgettes, and radishes through a vegetable spiralizer to turn them into long thick ribbons. Alternatively, use a vegetable peeler.
  4. Place all the vegetable strips except the beetroot in a serving bowl and toss with the chopped coriander leaves (adding the beetroot separately prevents the whole salad turning pink). Distribute between 4 serving plates, add the beetroot, pour over the dressing, scatter a few of the pine nuts and furikake or sesame seeds over each portion, and serve.
