Beetroot salad
Posted: Sat Jun 07, 2008 4:47 amHere is my beetroot salad that I make for when we have BBQ (braai) or with cold meats.1 kg beetroot boiled till skin peels off then cut into thin slices.
Sauce: 0.5 cup spirit vinegar or cyder .
0.5 cup sugar
0.5 cup water
1 heaped table spoon custard powder.
Salt to taste
Method: Boil sugar, water and vinegar until sugar has melted, mix custard powder with some water into a thin paste and stir into mixture,continue stiring until you have a smoothe paste over low heat. Place beetroot into a bowl and pour mixture over and mix with a spoon until all the
slices are evenly coated you should end up with a nice glaze on your beetroot
.I normally just vacpack it and keep it in the fridge till I need some.You can also add some thinly sliced onion to your mixture,I like it that way.
