Prep 15 min
Smoked mackerel is oily and strongly flavoured, so it needs something sharp against it: horseradish stirred into fat-free yogurt does that without the fat of a cream dressing. Beetroot is the only thing here that needs cooking, and it is bought cooked.

A slice of dark rye bread turns it from a salad into supper.
Storage
Keeps a day. Dress it only when you serve, or the beetroot stains everything pink.
Notes
Pre-cooked beetroot is referenced as raw: cooked is 44 kcal/100 g against 43 raw, so a second food would say nothing.
