    I agree this was quite garlicky and would probably just use one clove next time. I used dill as I didn't have any coriander and that worked too.

    I like beets but don't love them but this dish was phenomenal. I made this for a Ukrainian-focused dinner and this was the best dish. Highly recommend.

    Quite tasty. Doesn’t hold up quite as well as leftovers, though - plan to eat the day of. Intensely garlicky. I found myself wishing for a bit more prune, though, so I would probably add more if I made it again.

    Same sentiment here, absolutely love the combination of the beetroot with the prunes AND of the sour cream with the balsamic vinegar. One of those things that you wouldn't have thought to combine but make so much sense when you think about it. I've made this a few times already whenever I felt the need for a beetrooty side.

    Incredible! I saw this recipe, realized I had all the ingredients, and thought, "that sounds good - the prunes are in interesting addition, let's try it." I had zero clue that a one bite of roasted beet plus juicy prune plus toasted walnut is basically, in a word, heaven. This will be a longtime favorite!

    Delicious. Very pretty with red, orange, and candy-striped beets. I think I tossed 3 lbs beets with 1 tsp. salt (made 1.5 recipe). Didn't need as much dressing as the recipe called for. The whole recipe is worth doubling for extras....could see this making an appearance at Thanksgiving.

    A very nice, simple recipe for roasted beets. Never thought to pair prunes and beets -this works well for me. Delicious.
