Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan-forced. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Combine cumin, ground coriander, paprika and cinnamon in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Wrap each beetroot in foil and place on prepared tray. Bake for 30 minutes. Add carrots to tray. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon spice mix. Bake for 20 minutes or until beetroot and carrots are tender.
  3. Meanwhile, cook freekeh in a large saucepan of boiling water following packet instructions or until just tender. Drain. Refresh under cold water. Drain.
  4. Lightly spray salmon with oil and sprinkle with remaining spice mix. Lightly spray a chargrill or barbecue with oil and preheat over medium-high heat. Cook salmon for 2–3 minutes each side or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate. Cover salmon with foil and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  5. Peel beetroot and cut into wedges. Combine beetroot, freekeh, carrot, fresh coriander and orange segments (and any juice) in a bowl. Top salad with salmon and sprinkle with rind to serve.
