The trick to adding any ingredient to a classic recipe I feel is balance. In this case, the more beetroot you add, the deeper the colour gets. I have added just a small piece of roasted Beetroot so that we have a stunning baby pink colour without compromising on the taste. The aim is always to have the most flavourful food that looks great as well!
