beetroot and other Winter warm food

You all might know Sophie Dahl as a model, wife of Jamie Cullum and granddaughter of famous writer Roald Dahl, but she also wrote some fantastic cookbooks. 

I made a recipe from her Voloptuous Delights book yesterday. 

Don't you just ♥ these beetroot and rich red colours nature provides us ? 

Have to say that warm Winter salad was really good ! It accompagnied a roast beef we marinated for 6 hours in a red wine & herb marinade, before we cooked it in our oven .. so delicious !
