  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the sour cream, horseradish and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.

  • Peel the beets and cut them into wedges. Transfer to a bowl, drizzle with half of the horseradish cream and sprinkle with the parsley. Serve the remaining horseradish cream on the side.

Make Ahead
