Ingredients
- 2 cups beetroot diced, cooked (pickled or boiled
- 1 cup potato diced
- 1 cup carrot diced
- 1 red onion peeled and diced
- 1 apple peeled and diced
- ½ cup pickles diced, also known as gherkins or cornichons
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the rosolli dressing:
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt or heavy cream - more traditional but fattier, plain
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar note: if using pickled beets, you can reduce this to ½ teaspoon
- 1 teaspoon caster sugar
- ½ teaspoon beetroot juice optional, from jar/can
Instructions
- Add the potatoes and carrots to a pan of boiling water and boil for 5 minutes or until tender but not mushy. Drain, run under water to cool, drain again and set aside to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, make the rosolli dressing by mixing all the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.
- When the potatoes and carrots are cold, add them to a large bowl with the beetroot, onions, apple and pickles, season with salt and pepper and mix well.
- If serving right away, mix the dressing into the vegetables. Otherwise refrigerate both the veggies and dressing and mix before serving or serve the dressing on the side.
Notes
- If you’re using pickled beets, reduce the amount of apple cider vinegar to ½ teaspoon.
- Make sure everything is chopped the same size so that all flavors are evenly distributed in each bite.
- Traditionally dressing is mixed into the salad but it can be served on the side.
- If you use a yellow or brown onion, the flavor may be a bit stronger.
