What is Boiled beetroot with dill?
Boiled beetroot with dill is a simple preparation of tender-cooked beetroot tossed or mixed with fresh dill. It is easy to make at home and appears in many cuisines as a side dish or salad rather than belonging to one particular tradition.
The beetroot is soft and gently sweet, while dill brings a fresh, grassy note. Serve it chilled or at room temperature, dressed with lemon and a little oil, alongside a main meal, or add it to a spread of salads and small plates.
