15 minThis is a home cook’s version of vinegret, the beloved Russian beet salad that turns everything a gorgeous magenta the moment the beets touch anything else in the bowl.
Cooked beets and potatoes, green peas, shredded carrots, hard-boiled egg, and a good handful of scallions all get tossed together with a dressing of plain yogurt and apple cider vinegar. The yogurt makes this lighter than traditional versions dressed in oil, while the vinegar keeps the brightness you’d expect.
Serve chilled over lettuce or cabbage leaves for a side dish that’s as striking to look at as it is to eat.
