Ingredients

2 tablespoon olive oil

4 brown onions (800g), sliced thinly

1 1/2 cup (330g) firmly packed light brown sugar

3 fresh beetroot (600g), peeled, grated coarsely

Wear disposable gloves when peeling beetroot as it will stain your hands. Store relish in a cool, dark place for at least three weeks before opening. Refrigerate the relish after opening.
