Beetroot Recipe # Beetroot Relish

This beetroot relish is delicious, especially when served with lamb. The texture can be adjusted to your own liking, and I suggest it be somewhat chunky to give a contrast to the smoothness of the lamb. This recipe was in a book of notes from my grandmother, and tastes amazing.

Ingredients

• 10 medium beets, scrubbed and chopped
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
• 1 stalk celery, chopped
• 2 tablespoons salt
• ½ cup white sugar
• 1 cup chopped cauliflower
