Ingredients
  

  • 3 cooked beets
  • 2 granny smith apple, peeled, diced
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar or bold palate's apple spice vinaigrette (see note if using)
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup maple syrup (depending how sweet you like it) or honey or sugar of preference
  • 1 serrano pepper, minced or 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds or 1/2 tsp ground cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1 tbsp ginger, peeled, grated or 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Heat a small saucepan over medium heat and add a tbsp of the vinegar then add the onions and cook 3-4 minutes. Add the serrano pepper and cook for a minute. Then add all other ingredients and cook covered on medium-low heat for 20 minutes. Cook uncovered for 20 minutes until liquid evaporates. If it gets too dry can add a little water and cook until desired consistency.

Notes

  • If using bold palate's dressing vs. apple cider vinegar then add a little water to saute the onions with. Will need to add 1/2 cup of water total for liquid. 
  • Add to any grilled fish, chicken, pork, or stuff it in a pork loin. 
  • Serve as a condiment on a cheeseboard (goes really well with brie).
  • Serve it in a sandwich!
