    1 In a small pan, warm honey and thyme over a low heat, without boiling, for about 30 seconds. Set aside.

    2 In a large bowl, place beetroot, ricotta, flour, parsley and eggs. Stir to combine. Season with pepper.

    3 In a large non-stick frying pan, heat oil over medium-high. Cook ¼-cupfuls of the beetroot mixture, in batches for 2-3 minutes each side, or until fritters are golden, to make 12 fritters.

    4 Divide fritters among 4 plates. Top each with a little crumbled ricotta, smoked salmon and rocket. Drizzle with infused honey and garnish with remaining thyme. Serve.
