Creamy with a little horseradish bite, this incredibly bright salad is delicious with cold meats and fish — so is perfect to have with leftovers.
Ingredients
8 beetroot, freshly cooked, peeled1 tsp coarse sea salt
1 tbsp grated fresh horseradish or prepared horseradish (not creamed)
1 cup sour cream
1 tbsp grated orange rind
2 tbsp snipped dill
Preparation
Cut the beetroot into thin strips. Combine the remaining ingredients, except the dill, and toss with the beetroot. Cover and chill for at least 1–2 hours to allow the flavours to blend. Just before serving, top with the dill.TIP: To cook beetroot, first cut the tops off, leaving a little stem. Boil in enough salted water to cover for 30–40 minutes. To bake, wrap in foil and cook in a 180°C oven for 1–1½ hours. Skins will slip off when cooked.
