MAKE IT BEEFY

This salad works brilliantly with beef, too - use sliced roast beef from the deli counter or seared steaks, if you've got the barbecue out.

MAKE IT LOWER FAT

Mix the creamed horseradish with low-fat natural yogurt and add a pinch of sugar or a drizzle of honey to balance the flavours.

Taste team comment

'This is simplicity itself and different. A good option for me as I take salads to work. I'd add a little more horseradish to the dressing for extra bite.'

    As simple to make as a sandwhich but the flavour combination and presentation turn it into something special. I have tried making the dressing with half half-fat creme friache and half mayonaise instead of soured cream and it tasted even better. Great with crusty bread and a glass of chilled rose.
