The recipe doesn't clearly state wether the beetroot should be cooked or roasted or raw, so I opted for roasted.

Instructions
fry the bacon in a frying pan until golden and crispy and leave to drain on a piece of kitchen paper. Cook the freekeh according to the instructions on the package. For precooked freekeh that will be around ten minutes but if you have regular it takes 45 minutes! Make sure you know which one you have..
Drain the freekeh and leave to cool.
Add the vinegar, maple syrup, oil, mustard and salt and pepper in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the freekeh, apple, beetroot, radish and feta and shake to combine it all.
Divide the salad across four plates and serve with the crispy pancetta and the chives.
