Directions

  1. 1

    Peel and halve the red onion and cut into strips. Mix vinegar and sugar. Fold in 3 tablespoons of oil in a thin stream. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Wash, peel and slice the beetroot, mix with vinaigrette.

  2. 2

    Cover and place in a cool place.

    For the sauce, peel and finely dice the onion. Melt the fat in a small pot. Fry the diced onion until transparent. Stir in flour, add white wine and stock. Simmer at low heat for about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Wash the herbs and shake dry. Cut the chives into fine rolls. Finely chop parsley and marjoram, except for a little bit for garnishing. Stir the crème fraîche into the sauce. Place the sauce and herbs, except for 1-2 tbsp. chive rolls, in a tall container, puree and season to taste with salt and pepper.
