Beetroot chutney
Ingredients
- 1.5 kg about 5 medium fresh beetroot
- 3 brown onions finely chopped
- 3 Granny Smith apples peeled, cored, finely chopped
- 500 ml 2 cups balsamic vinegar
- 80 ml 1/3 cup fresh orange juice
- 550 g 21/2 cups raw sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 2 large fresh rosemary sprigs
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 200°C. Wrap each beetroot bulb in foil. Place in a baking dish. Bake in oven for 1 hour. Set aside to cool slightly. Using disposable gloves to avoid staining your hands, remove the skins and discard. Trim the root and stem ends. Finely chop the beetroot.
-
Place beetroot, onion, apple, vinegar, orange juice, sugar and cloves in a large heavy-based saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the rosemary. Reduce heat to medium. Simmer for 1 hour or until the mixture thickens slightly.

Remove the rosemary and discard. Spoon the hot chutney into sterilised jars. Seal and invert for 2 minutes.
