100g/31/2oz carrot, grated
2 eggs
1 lemon
2tsp cane sugar
1tsp sea-salt
1tbsp brown rice vinegar
For the dressing
125ml/4oz cane sugar
3 egg yolks
1/2tsp sea salt
75ml/3fl oz brown rice vinegar

500ml/17fl oz extra-virgin olive oil
Place the beetroot in a bowl, sprinkle with the sugar and salt and marinate for 2 hours. Add the vinegar and stir. Strain, retaining the juice. Boil the eggs. Peel and set aside.
To make the dressing, mix the egg yolk and salt in a bowl - whisk until fluffy. Add the cane sugar and whisk. Add the vinegar and tamari and whisk. Slowly drizzle in the oil until it's the consistency of thick, runny custard.
Place the beetroot and carrot on a plate. Slice the eggs in half and place there too. Drizzle some beetroot juice over the salad and pour the dressing over to finish.
