With the sweltering summer heat showing no signs of departure any time soon, it's of vital importance to ensure that your body is not depleted of the essential nutrients. And it's very important to stay hydrated with cool salads and light food. Keeping that in mind young Chef Saurabh Srivastava, the executive chef at Aloft New Delhi, Aerocity shares two cool summer salad recipes for Indulge readers to combat the heat and keep healthy.

Chef Saurabh Shrivastava 

Beet and Mozzarella Salad

Ingredients:

Half kg small beets |  250 gm mozzarella di buffalo | 1/4 cup whey| 4 tsp extra virgin olive oil |  2 tsp good quality balsamic vinegar | 1 tsp apple cider vinegar |  1/2 tsp salt |  Black pepper | Chopped fresh chives, parsley and mint |  Orange segments | Beetroot microgreens 

Method:

 Preheat the oven to 380F/ 180 C.   Dice the mozzarella and place in a colander over a bowl for about an hour, and if you’ve bought good quality mozzarella, you should have at least a few tablespoons of whey in your bowl.  

Wash the beets and toss them with a bit of olive oil. Wrap them in tin foil (if they are small, about 3 to a package) and place them in the preheated oven. If small, they should take about an hour to cook. Take out of the oven and slip the skins off. Cut into dices and put them into a solution of white wine vinegar and sugar for at least two hours.

 Place the lettuce and arrange the dices of mozzarella and beetroot.

 Scatter the orange segments over the top, and then the herbs and microgreens.

  To make the dressing: Pour the whey, olive oil, balsamic, vinegar and salt and pepper in a small jar. Shake to combine.

Pour dressing over the salad, and add a bit more freshly ground pepper and sea salt.
