Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large pan and gently cook the onion and garlic for 10 mins until soft. Add the beetroot and vinegar to the pan and cook down until sticky. Take the pan off the heat, then stir in the crème fraîche. Blitz with a hand blender, or tip into a food processor and blitz to a purée. Stir in the grated horseradish and serve. The purée can be made up to a day ahead and heated in a pan or in the microwave.

    Very easy to make. I portioned this up to put in the freezer to take out whenever required. Great with roast beef and a side to many dishes. I made half without the horseradish and it was just as nice. Thanks!

    This is quite nice, but just doesnt seem to go with a dinner. Maybe because we're used to veg on our plate being green?

    @ Theresah: Take out the horseradish and it goes really well with Duck breast.
