Ingredients
- 16 oz baby red beets trimmed, boiled in acidulated water to cover, and drained, (or baked until tender), peeled, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
- 1 whole small red onion halved and thinly sliced
- 2 med Granny Smith apples peeled, cored, and chopped
- ½ cup white table wine apple cider or apple juice
- 1 dash salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
- 2 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Combine the beets, onion, and apples in a medium-size heavy saucepan. Add the wine, and season with salt, pepper, and cardamom.
- Cover and simmer over low heat until the apples and beets begin to fall apart, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Beat in the butter, breaking up the beets and apples. The mixture should be lumpy rather than smooth.
- Serve the compote very hot, warm, or at room temperature.
