Ingredients:

Serving

1 bunch beets (3/4 lb without greens or 1 1/4 lb with), trimmed
1/4 cup sliced natural almonds
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp minced shallot
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 tbsp red-wine vinegar
1/4 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 large asian pear
3 cups mache or baby arugula (3 oz)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425°F.
Wrap beets in foil and roast in middle of oven until tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Unwrap beets and cool.
While beets are roasting, cook almonds in oil in a small skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until pale golden. Cool almonds in oil (nuts will get darker as they cool). Transfer almonds with a slotted spoon to a small bowl and season with salt.
Stir together shallot, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, salt, and oil from almonds in a large bowl.
Slip skins from beets and halve large beets. Cut beets into 1/4-inch-thick slices and add to dressing, tossing to coat.
Quarter and core pear and cut into julienne strips.
Arrange beets on a platter and drizzle with any dressing remaining in bowl. Top with mâche, then pear. Sprinkle with almonds.
Cooks' note: Beets may be roasted and tossed with dressing 1 day ahead, then chilled and covered. (Keep toasted almonds, covered, at room temperature. Bring dressing to room temperature before using.)
