  I have to agree with other comments about the time it takes- in my case, an hour and a half for prep and 1hour 45 mins for cooking. But I tasted it and can't wait to try it properly. I made 2 very large jars (originally mayo jars) and 1 small jar- I think this one had honey in it originally.

  I have made beetroot chutney before not with oranges but apple. I boil my beetroot until soft first and its also easier to peel,then I use it in the recipe.

  This is fabulous. I made it today and a complete success. TIP: I grated the beetroot and apple with my Magimix on the coarse grater - worked perfectly and the mix cooked in just over an hour. I experimented a bit with the spices and added a red chillie, finely sliced.

  Fab chutney that is perfect in cheese sandwiches. Used chunks of apple to make it more chunky and sweet. Took a long time to simmer down but probably just the nature of my pan.

  This wass my first ever go at making chutney and i'm so pleased. It's SO tasty - none of the ingredients are overpowering and the blend of tastes is great. I made the change of 50/50 sugar rather than normal as it's for a present for my parents for christmas and my dad is diabetic so i was keen to reduce the sugar. It did take a long time to simmer down to the correct consistency so make sure you've got plenty of time when making it. I hope my parents will share it with me once they've opened it! :)

  Hi, I'm hoping someone could give me some advice. Would this recipe work if I used the precooked vacuum packed beetroot? I'm very new to chutneys and I'd be really grateful if someone could give me an answer for this one!

  Made my second batch today, the first batch was very tasty! It does take a lot longer than the specified one hour to cook though.

  Made this today. Unfortunately the only uncooked beetroot I could find were Chioggia (ther white and red stripped heirloom ones) so the colour of the finished chutney isn't the best, but the flavour is amazing so that more than makes up for it. I will definitely be making more.

  A fabulous chutney! I love beetroot and found that the flavour of the orange complements the beetroot beautifully and doesn't get swamped by it. I added four cloves of garlic and about 5 cardamom pods as well - just because I like them :-) I added a bit to the cooking time too as I don't like chutneys too runny - about 7 minutes on a higher boil, stirring all the time. Result? Wonderful - we'll be enjoying this with a leg of lamb this Christmas!

  Made this today to use up some beetroot from the veg box - can't stand the stuff. However, this chutney is fantastic! As others have said took ages to reach the right consistency (2 1/2 hours of simmering...should have read the comments about boiling for longer) but it tastes lovely, if a little on the sweet side! Left out the cloves (yuck yuck yuck) with no detrimental effect on the chutney. Would definitely make again.

  Took a bit longer than stated, especially the preparation, but the result is beautiful. Used chunks of apple and brown mustard seeds (because I didn't have yellow or white). Tastes fabulous. Great with pork sausages.

  Made this today to have with cold meats and cheese at Christmas. Took a longer cooking time than stated, think it should be a fast simmer and not a gentle one! Tastes fantastic and I am sure it will be even better by Christmas. Great with Stilton cheese in a sandwich.

  I made this last year and was delish! Made more this year to give with the seeded oatcakes and a chunk of stilton. Peeling and dicing 1.5kg beetroot took more like an hour (not 20min as stated!!!!) and as previously mentioned, it took ages to simmer until enough liquid had evaporated. I think I'll try grating it next time - good suggestion. Always well received gift though and always keep some back for myself! Yum :)
