Beetroot

[RooMama]

Thanks to my weekly veg box I'm overwhelmed by fresh beetroot. Husband doesn't consume it pickled due to migraine trigger.

Any good (simple) beetroot recipes out there?

Thanks

There is always borscht. I eat a non-vegetarian version with diced beef in it. I would say the sour cream and dill on top are essentials. A shot of vodka on the side optional.

My beetroot hating DH's favourite soup!

I like to roast it with or without balsamic vinegar. Peel and quarter, put into foil with oil, salt and pepper and add balsamic if you want to. Loosely twist foil into a parcel and roast for about 40 mins. Delicious as a side dish.

BBC Good Food’s beetroot risotto is delicious. It’s baked in the oven so you can just forget about it for a while!

We have these beetroot burgers quite often giy.ie/get-growing/recipes/recipe-of-the-week-%E2%80%93-beetroot-burgers.html

My mil also had a risotto recipe where you add cooked beetroot and soft goats cheese at the end which is pretty nice.

You can shred / grate it raw and make a coleslaw with some cabbage and carrots. Bloody lovely. I use a magimax with the grater attachment as its a messy buusiness

I agree grated in salad is lovely.

Also This recipe is fantastic sometimes i throw cauliflower in www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/roasted-beetroot-zaatar-chickpeas-harissa-yogurt

I love beetroot, particularly combined with horseradish in a dip or beetroot and apple soup.

Oh and I also use beetroot in oven baked falafel

Anna Jones's beetroot curry is amazing. We put feta on top instead; https://www.stroke.org.uk/sites/default/files/annajonessbeetrootcurryywithspikeddcottagecheeseerecipe.pdf

I adore beetroot. Like the look of that beetroot curry.
