"Seriously, what could be easier or more delicious and nutritious than a Beetroot Salad. Beetroot is a real favourite British vegetable, and despite having fallen well out of favour (thanks to the British love of the pickled variety)now understanding the health benefits, it is back on the menu big time. This beetroot salad recipe has a twist, it has a lovely creamy dressing made using organic natural yoghurt (my favourite brand of Rachel's Organics is particularly good). The yoghurt is mixed with garlic and cumin, and with the mint and coriander/cilantro in the salad makes it a very Moroccan-style dish. Beetroot is also one of the most versatile vegetable sin the kitchen (rhubarb is another) as it can be used across a whole range of dishes, from the simple cooked beetroot right through to stunning desserts and cakes. I love it...."
