SWEET SOUR BEETROOT RELISH

This relish in all the rage at private and business functions in London, served on British Herb Scones (see my recipe posted separately) and a dollop of sour cream. It is also delicious on potato latkes or blini, topped with sour cream, or alternatively with burgers, sausages, cold meats, roast beef or lamb, and cheese. If you can, choose baby beets, which are sweeter than the larger beets, and select those that are heavy for their size. Adapted from a recipe by Sophie Grigson.

BEETROOT RELISH

This beetroot relish is delicious, especially when served with lamb. The texture can be adjusted to your own liking, and I suggest it be somewhat chunky to give a contrast to the smoothness of the lamb. This recipe was in a book of notes from my grandmother, and tastes amazing.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm beets: Look for beets that are smooth and free of blemishes. The smaller the beets, the sweeter they will be.
  • Roast the beets before using: Roasting intensifies the sweetness of the beets and makes them easier to peel. To roast beets, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the beets with olive oil and salt, then wrap them in foil. Roast for 45-60 minutes, or until the beets are tender. Allow the beets to cool slightly before peeling and chopping.
  • Use a food processor or grater to shred the beets: This will make it easier to mix the relish ingredients together.
  • Add some citrus: Lemon or orange juice adds a bright, tangy flavor to the relish. You can also add some zest for extra flavor.
  • Sweeten the relish with honey or sugar: This will help to balance out the tartness of the citrus juice.
  • Season the relish with salt and pepper: To taste. You can also add some other spices, such as cumin, coriander, or paprika.
  • Chill the relish before serving: This will help the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Beetroot relish is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. So next time you are looking for a way to add some extra flavor to your meals, give beetroot relish a try!
