Is there any alternative for beetroot? I can’t find it in our local grocery stores. If none, then is it possible not to add beetroot for this kind of recipe? I really wanted to try this because it is very simple and I think it looks delicious.
Beetroot was just a suggestion as a side pickle, and it looked pretty good with the dish. 😉
You can you others also, I recommend to choose something not too sour and a bit sweet.
Thanks! I tried it but I seemed to lack some spice. But overall, it tastes good!
I like the plating with beetroot and a glass of dry red wine and most especially the food itself looks delicious. Thank you for this wonderful and delicious Hungarian Recipe.
