you can't. once you have deleted it, it is gone forever.

If the DELETE was a part of a transaction, just roll back the transaction. If it wasn't, then the record really is gone. You'll have to restore it from a backup.

Server keeps log for each deleted records.You can query these logs via 'fn_dblog' sql server function with the table name "Employee" and it will give you all the deleted records from the log.

 Select [RowLog Contents 0] FROM   sys.fn_dblog(NULL, NULL) WHERE  AllocUnitName = 'dbo.TableName' 
AND Context IN ( 'LCX_MARK_AS_GHOST', 'LCX_HEAP' ) AND Operation in ( 'LOP_DELETE_ROWS' )

But this log is in Hex format. and you need to convert this Hex format to your actual data.

Given below is the article will help you to recover the deleted records in the same way defined above.
