This is an excellent spicy relish that goes well with cold meats. It's also a good way of using large, main-crop, beetroot that are too large or tough to pickle otherwise.
Ingredients:
900g cooked beetroot, peeled and diced
450g white cabbage, finely shredded (a
chiffonade)
75g fresh
horseradish, grated
1 tbsp
mustard powder
600ml malt vinegar
225g sugar
2 tsp paprika
generous pinch of
cayenne pepper
salt and black pepper, to taste
Method:
Add all the ingredients to a large pan and season well. Bring slowly to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once cooked spoon the relish into jars that have been sterilized and warmed in an oven set to 100°C for 10 minutes (leaving 1cm of head space) and seal immediately with vinegar-proof lids. Store for at least 2 months before using.
