Method


  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.

  2. Wipe the beetroot clean under running water, then dry.

  3. Place the beetroot onto a large piece of aluminium foil. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and add the cinnamon stick.

  4. Wrap the beetroot up in the foil into a parcel, then transfer to the oven to roast for 45 minutes, or until cooked through and soft.

  5. Remove from the oven and leave to cool, then unwrap and peel the beetroot. Chop the beetroot into small cubes.

  6. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and fry until softened.

  7. Add the beetroot, white wine and stock. Bring to the boil and simmer until the liquid volume is reduced by half.

  8. Add the soured cream and continue to simmer until reduced to a thick sauce.

  9. Add the dill and horseradish cream and stir well to combine.
