Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

You can serve this as an individual starter, as a sharing dish on a buffet, or spooned on to toast as a snack or canapé. If you want to give it added depth, it is worth noting that it's rather nice mixed with some chopped, pickled herrings.

2-3 medium to large beetroots, peeled, thinly sliced and finely chopped
1 small red onion, peeled, halved and finely chopped
2 dill pickles, sliced and chopped into small pieces
1tsp mayonnaise
½tsp tomato ketchup
1tsp chopped dill
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A few drops of Tabasco to taste
Thin slices of toast to serve

Mix all of the ingredients together and season to taste. Spoon on to one large, or several individual serving dishes, and serve with the toast.
