Not surprising that my dad also loves to eat (it must be genetic). For his Birthday this year, he picked a new restaurant that opened in Hawaii, Senia. He starts out with 'these guys came from Per Se in New York' and my first thought is, how much is this going to cost. But we get there and it's not the upscale French Laundry, Per Se atmosphere. It's much more quaint and the food was pretty good too. Their menu rotates, but one of my favorites was the BBQ Beet Salad. Here's my version of it.
Beet Root
Olive Oil
Cider Vinegar
Salt & Pepper to taste
Arugula
Puffed Brown rice
Avocado
Roast the Beets until tender thru, peel and cube. Drizzle olive oil and vinegar, toss and set aside. Deep fry the brown rice blend (I used a brown rice medley from Trader Joe's) in grapeseed oil until they puff, strain immediately and set aside.
Mash the avocado with salt and pepper then spread evenly on the bottom of the plate. Sprinkle the puffed rice, arugula and beet cubes. Or Cube the Avocado and toss together with the other ingredients.
