Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium beetroot about 150 g, scrubbed, top and root tail trimmed
  • 1 cucumber washed, cut into long wedges
  • 100 g strawberries or raspberries hulled and rinsed
  • ½ lime peeled, pips removed

Equipment

  • Sana 727, Sana 707 or Sana 878 slow juicer, fine screen fitted
  • Vegetable brush, chopping board and knife

Method
 

  1. Scrub the beetroot and trim the top and root tail. Cut it into pieces of about 2 to 3 cm.
  2. Cut the cucumber into long wedges. Hull the strawberries. Peel the lime half and remove the pips.
  3. Fit the fine screen. On the Sana 727, set the speed to 40 rpm. The Sana 707 runs at one low speed.
  4. Feed a few pieces of beetroot, then a wedge of cucumber, then a few berries, so the firmer produce pushes the soft berries through. Add the lime between them.
  5. Finish with cucumber to carry the last of the juice out of the drum.
  6. Stir and drink straight away.

Notes

Makes about 380 ml. On the Sana 878, put the berries at the bottom of the hopper and the beetroot and cucumber on top.
