I used fresh beetroot and cooked it in the microwave. Healthy and less plastic waste. It's very tasty.

Used pickled beetroot instead which worked really well. :-)

Can you freeze this dip once you have made it?

We'd suggest serving this fresh for best results. We always put a blue star above the nutrition information if a dish is suitable for freezing.

tip

Delicious tasting, however far too sloppy for my liking using the quantities given. Either try using less crème fraîche or use more beetroot.
