I just use a tin of diced beetroot and red onions sliced into half moons and cover with a plain vinegrette dressing.Dead easy.

i did one the other week, peel raw beetroot, grate and mix with the onion and dressing, very simple and very nice. I had thought my hands would go purple but they did not stain at all, unlike when I have peeled them from cooked. I just used a store bought dressing.

Beetroot Dish from Radio and TV book.

1-2 large onions
3-4 large beetroot, peeled
4oz-100gr-I use MUCH less butter
2 teasp. sugar
½ teasp. salt
Juice of 1-2 large lemons.

Slice onions thinly. Grate raw beetroot.Lightly fry onions in butter. Add beetroot, sugar and salt.
Cover and cook for 8-10 mins.
Add lemon juice just before serving.
Serve with hot meat and another vegetable or with cold salad.
