Ingredients

  • 2 cups beetroots, raw, grated peeled
  • 1 tablespoon honey, mildly flavoured
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar or 1/4 cup cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt

Method

  • Place all the ingredients into a medium sized saucepan and, over a high heat, stir until the honey dissolves.
  • Bring to the boil and then reduce to a simmer and cook for about one and a half hours or until most of the liquid has evaporated and the grated beetroot is tender.
  • Taste for seasoning while it is still warm and adjust if necessary.
