Russian Creamy Beetroot Salad Recipe - Beet Salad - Салат из свеклы

Today we're going to be making a super healthy and very easy creamy beet salad. It's something that I used to have as a child at home and in Latvia, Russia, Ukraine and all the Russian-speaking countries we eat a lot of beets, maybe because they're sweet and they're quite available, but it's a really, really healthy dish and I hope you try it. This recipe will need onion, sugar, salt, sour cream, vinegar and raw beetroot. The longest part of this recipe is cooking beetroot. It takes about 60 minutes. But you can boil your beetroot the night before, so then it takes just minutes to assemble the salad. Cut your beetroot in half and place it inside your pan with the whole skin. When your beetroot is cooked, we're going to leave it aside to cool down. And now it's cool, so I'm going to peel off the skin, but I'm also going to be putting some gloves on. Beetroot's very strong red color, so you don't want to get it everywhere on your hands. Because it's been cooked, it's going to be very, very easy to take the skin off. It just kind of comes off just like that. Beetroot contains a lot of potassium, magnesium and iron, as well as vitamins A, B6 and C. So it's really good for your body. I'm going to be cheating and using my food processor. All we're going to do, we're going to put the beetroot right in there. Into a bowl So here we are. Vibrant red beetroot salad. It looks so pretty. Let's give this a try. Oh my God. This is amazing. Beetroot is really, really sweet, onion adds that extra crunch and then we have sour cream giving that creamy consistency.
