Spiced pickled beetroot: a make-ahead, irresistible side dish for any gathering.
Ingredients:
  • 1 bunch beetroot, trimmed, scrubbed
  • 250ml (1 cup) red wine vinegar
  • 100g (1/2 cup) caster sugar
  • 1 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1 tsp peppercorns
  • 1 fresh bay leaf
  • 1.80 gm sea salt
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Wrap the beetroot bulbs in foil individually, then place them on a baking tray. Roast in the oven for 1 hour or until they're tender. Let them cool before using.
  • Peel and thinly slice the beetroot using a sharp knife, then place the slices in a 500ml sterilized jar.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds, peppercorns, bay leaf, and salt. Stir for 2 minutes until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 3 minutes before pouring over beetroot in a jar. Seal with lid.
  • Infuse flavors overnight or for up to 1 week. Refrigerate upon opening and enjoy within 2 weeks.
