- Preparation: 25 min
- Cooking: 30 min
- Makes: 1 serving (269 g)
- Difficulty: Easy
- Diets: Vegetarian, Gluten-free

Ingredients
- 60 g Beets, raw
- 60 g Potatoes, raw
- 40 g Carrots, raw
- 25 g Pickles, dill
- 15 g Onions, raw
- 40 g Apples, raw
- 5 g Vinegar, white
- 3 g Sugar
- 20 g Sour cream
- 0.5 g Salt
Method
- Boil the beets, potato and carrot separately, to keep the beet from coloring everything, until tender, then cool, peel and dice.
- Dice the pickles, onion and apple into similarly small cubes.
- Combine all the diced vegetables and apple in a large bowl and toss gently; the beet will tint everything pink as it sits.
- Whisk the vinegar, sugar, salt and sour cream together to make a light dressing.
- Fold the dressing through the salad, or serve it alongside for guests to add themselves, and chill before serving.
