Notes
If you don't fancy the idea of raw beetroot, quickly blanche for a few minutes in boiling water. Pomegranate seeds can be bought packaged (easy option!) or buy a fresh pomegranate, cut in half and then holding it with splayed fingers across the cut end, hit the skin firmly with something like a sharpening steel until the seeds pop out. Some pith will come with it so discard that. If you are not able to serve immediately sqeeze a little lemon juice over the apple.
