Roasted Beet Red Onion And Cranberry Relish Recipes

BEET, RED ONION AND HORSERADISH RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Wrap beets in double thickness of foil. Roast beets on oven rack until tender, about 1 hour 45 minutes. Unwrap beets and cool.
• Whisk oil, vinegar, salt and pepper in medium bowl until blended. Mix in onion and horseradish.
• Peel beets; cut into 1/3-inch dice. Add to onion mixture. Cover; chill 1 to 4 days.

SIMPLE ROASTED BEET RELISH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F (190 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add peeled, cubed beets to a medium mixing bowl along with avocado oil (see notes for oil-free option), salt, and cumin.
• Roast beets for 35-40 minutes, or until fork tender and slightly golden brown / caramelized, tossing once at the 20-minute mark to ensure even baking. The longer they bake, the more tender and caramelized they become, but be careful not to overcook / burn, or they can become crispy and tough.
• Once roasted, add back to the mixing bowl from earlier and season with maple syrup, lime zest, and lime juice, and mix. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more lime juice for acidity, lime zest for citrus flavor, cumin for smokiness, salt to taste, or maple syrup for sweetness. Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.
• Use immediately (on our Roasted Plantain Black Bean Bowl!), or cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. If the beets get dry in the fridge, add a bit more lime juice or a dash of water or olive oil before serving to make them saucier. Not freezer friendly.

ROASTED BEET, RED ONION AND CRANBERRY RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Wrap beets in double thickness of aluminum foil. Cut onions through root end into 3/4-inch-thick wedges. Place onion wedges in medium bowl; toss with oil. Arrange onion wedges, cut side down, on baking sheet. Place beets directly on oven rack. Roast beets until tender, about 1 hour 45 minutes and onions until brown and tender, turning once, about 1 hour. Peel beets; cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Chop onions coarsely.
• Using on/off turns, coarsely chop cranberries in processor. Add beets and onions; blend briefly to chunky consistency. Transfer to bowl; mix in honey, horseradish, vinegar, salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 day. (Can be made 4 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)

• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and blend well. Chill thoroughly.

CRANBERRY AND RED ONION RELISH

TART CRANBERRY-ONION RELISH

• Stir together all ingredients in a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan, then bring to a boil, covered. Remove lid and reduce heat, then simmer until cranberries have burst, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cool, uncovered. Chill, covered, at least 8 hours for flavors to meld. Serve at room temperature.

ROASTED BEETS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475°F.
• Blanch onions in a large pot of boiling water 1 minute, then drain. Trim and peel.
• Tightly wrap onions and beets in double layers of foil to make 5 packages (2 of onions and 3 of beets) and roast until tender, 30 to 40 minutes for onions and about 1 hour for beets.
• When beets and onions are cool enough to handle, discard foil. Slip off skins and stems from beets and cut into wedges.

ROASTED SWEET BEET RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. For the tomato purée, halve the tomatoes and place them, skin side down, on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the salt, garlic, and olive oil. Roast for 1 hour on the bottom shelf of the oven, then remove. Press through a sieve or pass through a food mill to remove the skins and seeds - you'll end up with about 1 1/4 cups of intensely flavored purée.
• Meanwhile, put the beets into a baking dish and drizzle with a little olive oil. Roast, above the tomatoes, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours (longer if necessary), until the skins are blistered, blackened, and loosened. Let cool a little before peeling. You'll find the skins will slide off easily. Coarsely grate the beets (a food processor makes this job easy).
• Put the sugar, vinegars, onion, and horseradish into a large saucepan; bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato purée and cook for a couple minutes more. Finally, add the grated beets and cook for about 10 minutes, until thickened. Transfer to sterilized jars and seal with vinegar-proof lids (see pp. 21-22). Use within 1 year. Refrigerate once opened.
• P.S.
• It's easy to pickle horseradish root. Just grate enough fresh root to fill a jam jar, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of sugar, top up with cider vinegar, and seal with a lid. Use in sauces, dressings, and soups, and serve with roast beef.
