6 medium beets (about 2 1/4 lbs), trimmed
2 tsp cumin seeds
1 None cinnamon stick, broken
4 None cardamom pods, bruised
4 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and coarsely chopped
1 medium red onion, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 piece (3/4 inch) fresh ginger, grated
1 cup sugar
2 cups white vinegar
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp kosher salt

1
Boil, steam or microwave the beets until tender; drain. When cool enough to handle, peel the beets. Finely chop half the beets; blend or process the remaining beets until smooth.
2
Tie the spices in muslin. Combine the pureed beets and muslin bag with the apple, onion, garlic, ginger, sugar, vinegar, lemon juice and salt in a large saucepan. Stir on high heat, without boiling, until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil.
3
Reduce the heat to low; simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 30 mins. Add the chopped beets; simmer, uncovered, for about 10 mins or until the chutney is thick. Discard the muslin bag.
4
Spoon the hot chutney into hot sterilized jars and seal them immediately. Label and date the jars when cold.
5
Store the chutney in a cool, dark place for at least three weeks before opening. Refrigerate after opening.
