Roast Beef and Horseradish Wrap
Why this recipe works
- Fast assembly: Using ready-cooked roast beef keeps the recipe entirely no-cook and ready in about 10 minutes.
- Sharpness without heaviness: Greek yoghurt, lemon, Dijon and horseradish create a creamy spread with enough tang to balance the beef.
- Fresh crunch: Cucumber and rocket cut through the richness of the roast beef and keep the wrap light and crisp.

Ingredient notes
- Choose thinly sliced beef: Thin slices roll more cleanly and give a better balance of filling in each bite.
- Adjust the sharpness: Add lemon gradually and taste the spread before filling the wrap, as horseradish and mustard can vary in intensity.
- Use peppery leaves: Rocket reinforces the sharp, savoury flavour of the horseradish; baby spinach gives a softer, milder version.
Texture tips
- Keep the cucumber crisp: Cut the cucumber into batons rather than very thin slices if the wrap will be packed for later.
- Roll tightly: Keep the filling in a compact line across the lower third of the tortilla so the wrap holds its shape when sliced.
Make-ahead tips
- Mix the spread first: The yoghurt, horseradish and mustard mixture can be stirred together ahead of assembly and kept chilled.
- Best eaten fresh: For the cleanest texture, assemble the wrap on the day it will be eaten and keep it tightly wrapped in the fridge.

Ingredients
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the greek yogurt, horseradish and dijon mustard. Squeeze in the lemon juice and stir until smooth, then season with black pepper.
- Lay the flour tortilla on a board. Spread the horseradish yoghurt evenly over the tortilla, leaving a 2 cm border at the edges.
- Layer the beef roast slices over the spread. Cut the cucumber into thin batons and add them, then top with the rocket.
- Roll the wrap up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Slice in half on the diagonal and pack straight away.
Recipe notes
Tips
- For the neatest wrap, keep the filling in a tight line across the lower third of the tortilla before rolling.
- If packing for later, keep the cucumber in thicker batons so it stays crisp and does not water down the wrap.
Substitutions
- Replace greek yogurt with crème fraîche for a richer, less tangy spread.
- Replace rocket with baby spinach for a milder flavour.
Storage
- Refrigerate up to 1 days
- Best eaten the day it is made. If storing, wrap tightly and refrigerate; eat within 24 hours for the best texture.
