Preparation

Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F).

Combine the cereals, nuts and dried fruits. Heat the oil, honey and sugar, and add to the cereal mixture. Add orange juice and mix until well coated.

Line two or three baking trays with baking paper. Spoon the mixture onto the trays (do not pile mixture onto one tray, as it will not roast evenly). Bake for 40–60 minutes, until golden. Toss every 20 minutes to prevent burning.

Remove from the oven and cool. Store in an airtight container.

How to cook beetroot

To minimise bleeding during cooking do not peel the beetroot (the skin holds the colour) and leave a portion of the stem in place. Boil in salted water or bake in the oven wrapped in foil at 180°C.

Glossary

Dragon Fruit

Dragon fruit (thanh long tuoi) comes in two varieties - one with bright red flesh and the other white, both have tiny black seeds. Although it can be bland in flavour it makes a striking addition to a fruit platter.
