I took some of this chutney to give to the other grapes when we met up at Wellie and Trouser's cottage recently ... it seems to have gone down rather well....
Beetroot Chutney - makes 2 medium sized jars
300g cooked beetroot, diced (scrub and boil whole roots for about 3/4 hr depending on size - cool, peel, chop. Do not answer door unless you want your visitor to think you are Sweeney Todd)
150g onions - peeled and diced
150g cooking apples, peeled and diced
40g demerara sugar
1/4 tsp ginger
80ml vinegar (malt vinegar, or whatever else you've got)
1 tsp salt

- Bubble all ingredients up in a big pan - stirring to dissolve sugar.
- Simmer for 3/4 hour - stir occassionally
- put in steralised jars. Using a jam funnel makes this job infinitely less messy that it would be otherwise.
- Mature for 1 month
Nice one hazel!
There's loads of beetroot in my patch too - I was thinking today what the dickens am i going to do with it as it needs to come up in the next week or two. 
very lovely it is. Scared, Madmax doesn't usually eat beetroot either but loved the chutney so give it a try.
