Season with salt and pepper, place in preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes until tender. Allow to cool to room temperature, then slice each in half. Set on a serving tray. Tear the mozzarella into large bite-size pieces and arrange among beetroot. Arrange lamb's tongue lettuce around outside and drizzle the walnut salsa over top before serving.
