Barley With Beets, Arugula and Goat Cheese image

This beet and barley salad from Kathryn Anible, a personal chef in New York, is not particularly leafy or green, but the greens are there, stirred in for flavor and texture. "I feel like everybody uses arugula like a lettuce and they rarely ever cook with it," said Ms. Anible. It also adds color, so it's not all pink. I love the beet and green colors together.''

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small beet
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 small onion, diced small
1 clove garlic
1 cup barley
2 cups water or broth
1 cup arugula
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup goat cheese

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Wrap the beet in foil and roast in oven for 40 minutes, until it can be easily pierced with a knife. Allow to cool slightly. Peel the beet by wrapping it in plastic wrap and rubbing off the skin. Dice into 1/2 inch pieces.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat the oil. Add the onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the barley and the broth. Stir, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the barley is cooked and tender. Stir in the arugula and the beets. Season with salt and pepper. Crumble the goat cheese on top.

I made this recipe for my vegetarian friends and they loved it! The barley was a hearty and filling base and the beets and arugula added a nice freshness. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I ended up burning the barley and the beets were undercooked. I'll probably stick to simpler recipes in the future.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The barley was a bit bland and the beets were too sweet for my taste. I probably won't make this again.
