Beetroots and Beetroot Chutney
1 Kilo of beetroots
3 onions roughly chopped
3 eating apples finely chopped
juice and zest of 3 large oranges
1 pkt of pickling spice in a muslin bag.
1 tbs ground cinnamon
dried chillies (I used 4small ones)
700ml of spirit vinegar
300g of brown sugar
Wash beetroots well and boil for 20 mins. Peel and chop into cubes. Place in a large saucepan with all the other ingredients. Simmer gently until the beetroot is cooked and the “sauce” has thickened. Stir from time to time to stop it sticking. Remove bag of pickling spice. Put into sterilized jars, label and enjoy!
