Sweet and Sour Beets image

These are pretty much like Harvard beets, you can use canned beets slices (use one can) for this, or fresh cooked beets, I prefer the fresh cooked! also adjust the sugar to taste. You can double this recipe if desired, don't omit the orange zest, it really adds a kick to the beets!

Time 20m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup dry white wine or 1/4 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup water, that you used to cook the beets with
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
2 cups cooked beets (sliced or diced)
1 tablespoon butter
1 -2 teaspoon grated orange zest
black pepper

Steps:

  • In a bowl mix together the sugar, cornstarch and salt; stir in a little of the wine or vinegar to make a smooth paste.
  • Slowly drizzle in the remaining wine or vinegar and the water (adding all the liquid at once can produce lumps in the cornstarch).
  • Transfer the mixture to a saucepan; cook over low heat stirring and scraping bottom of the pan often.
  • Cook until liquid is clear (about 5 minutes).
  • Stir in cooked beets, butter and orange zest; stir until the beets are heated through.
  • Season with black pepper is desired.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beets. I had some roasted beets in the fridge and I wasn't sure what to do with them. I found this recipe and it was perfect!
