Sandie of Sandie's patch

Sandie welcome to my blog I am ever so sorry about this I read your comment and was about to respond to you but the gremlins have got into the works and accidentally deleted your message. For the sake of completeness would you mind re-posting it?   However I did see the bit about the recipe for Beetroot and Apple Chutney

Here is the recipe.

Ingredients

4lb beetroot cooked skinned and diced

2lb cooking apples peeled cored and diced

1lb onions peeled and chopped

Grated rind and juice of 2 large lemons

2 tablespoons grated root ginger or 2 teaspoons ground ginger

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon of ground pepper

1 3/4 pints of vinegar

1lb sugar

Put all the ingredients into a large maslin pan or large stock pot stirring the contents over a low heat until the sugar dissolves.  Bring up to a rolling boil and then reduce the heat and simmer until the chutney is thick and leaves a trail when you draw a spoon through the mixture.  Spoon into hot sterilised jars and seal with airtight vinegar proof covers.
