  1. Drizzle the beetroot with the balsamic and 1 tbsp Kikkoman Soy Sauce, sprinkle with thyme, then roast in an oven preheated to 200C (180C fan) for around 1 hour.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the lentils over a medium heat for 15-20 minutes until they are cooked through but still retain a bite. Drain and set aside to cool.
  3. On a pre-heated griddle pan, cook the sliced halloumi for 1-2 minutes per side.
  4. Meanwhile, whisk the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice and 2 tbsp Kikkoman Soy Sauce together. Dress the lentils with half of the dressing, reserving the rest for the salad leaves.
