Préparation

Divide the beetroot among four serving plates.
In a bowl, combine the mustard and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the walnut oil.
Cut the witlof and apple into small sticks and place in a bowl. Add half of the dressing and the walnut pieces. Spoon a little of the dressed salad onto each prepared plate.
Arrange the cheese around the salad. Garnish each plate with three quail egg halves. Spoon a little extra dressing over the cheese.
Scatter with chives and decorate with edible flowers. Serve.
