Curried Beet Salad for One

This flavorful salad was light, and went well with toast and hummus. Many of the recipes I've added to my blog so far have clearly been enough for more than one person, but this easy salad is the perfect healthy meal for one.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups baby arugula
1 large beet, cut into small chunks
1 small cucumber
1/4 red onion, chopped
2 green chilies, chopped
5-6 curry leaves - available at you're local Indian grocer
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 hard boiled egg

Saute the onion in the olive oil for about a minute. Add the green chilies and curry leaves and saute for another minute. Add the beet. Cover. Stir ocassionally until beets are no longer crunchy.

Arrange the arugula on a place. Cut the egg in half and remove the yolk if you wish. Slice each half into this pieces. Place the egg on the arugula without separating. Place slices of cucumber wherever you like. Do the same with the beets. Dress the salad with oil from cooked beets and lemon juice.
