Reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the beetroot is tender. 4. Drain, allow to cool slightly, then carefully peel and cut the beetroot into rough pieces. 5. Blend the beetroot, spring onion and stock in a food processor until smooth. 6. Add the vodka, lemon juice, crème fraîche, and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
