Beet salad with wild garlic & horseradish

This salad was all inspired by what I found at the GC farmers' market this week, especially the most beautiful chioggia beetroot and fresh horseradish. 

Serves 1 (multiply by however many you’re cooking for)

Method 

Combine the beetroot, wild garlic and rocket in a bowl. Mix the dressing ingredients then toss everything together.

Dot the creme fraiche over the salad but make sure not to completely mix it in. Transfer the salad to plates and finely grate a good amount of horseradish on top. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil if needed.
