  Made this and it turned out brilliant. Tasted good and the colour was fab. Had to boil it for longer then stated but this might have been due to the size of my pan. Made them for Christmas hampers.

  I made this the other day and although I changed some of the ingredents its is lovely the orange goes well with the beetroot. Makes lovely cheese and beetroot sandwiches. Saved some for christmas as I think it will be brilliant with cold meats and mash. xx

  I made this a couple of weeks ago and it looks and tastes great - even though I don't usually like beetroot! The recipe made eight 8oz jars. However, like others, I found it took a LOT longer to cook than the recipe said.

  Made this last weekend and was going to give this away as presents for Christmas as I don't like beetroot myself. It was absolutey delicious and I had to keep some for myself! Goes very well with cheeses.

  Having never made a chutney before I thought I would make some for the family as a small gift for Christmas - this recipe sounded easy to start me off. Unfortunately I found the quantity of Cinnamon too much, instead of 1tbsp I think it should be a level dessert spoon - far too overpowering and has ruined the finished result. It also should say 'leave to bubble for 1 hour' instead of 'simmer' as I had to leave it for ages to get the right consistancy. Otherwise, I think with these changes the recipe would be very tasty.

  This is delicious! It did take me a lot longer then 20 mins to prep though. But the finished result is well worth it!

  Just finishing making this chutney and it tastes lovely. The spices and the oranges makes it a nice warm flavour. Great for christmas I think, so I will have to make some more then and give away as gifts! I think next time though I will let it boil a little longer as I had alot of liquid left over.You need a good quality strong cheese to really appreciate the flavour. Very easy to make.

  Made this to help with our beetroot glut. Not a bad chutney, but not the best Ive ever made. Try the christmas chutney, that really is awesome...

  I cheated and used ready cooked beetroot as it was on offer in the supermarket! Cooked all the other ingrediants for 30 mins then added the chopped cooked beetroot. It tastes wonderful, will definately make it again.

  Made this and gave most of it away. Am about to make it again because it was so good. Glad that I could read the comments about the cooking time. I had so much liquid at one point that it looked more like a soup. Just let it cook until the liquid evaporated. Find this often the case with recipes which say like here, three eating apples etc. This time I'm using two oranges cos they are so big.
