I've grown up eating this as a main staple of many meals. A great accompaniment to ham, chicken or fish, with a side of creamy mashed potatoes. This has the prefect balance of sweetness from the grated beetroot juices and a bit of heat from the horseradish. With Spring and Easter in the air this recipe is found on every Polish table at Easter time.
