Equipment

Ingredients

  • 5 carrots tops and tails removed, diced
  • 1 small beetroot tops and tails removed, diced
  • cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
  • pinch salt
  • 3 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Place the diced carrots, beet and garlic in a steamer basket (or other steamer) and steam for 10-15 minutes until they are fork tender. Set aside to cool.
  • Add the vegetables, garlic, apple cider vinegar, ginger, spices, olive oil, maple syrup and water to your blender. Blend to a thick sauce. Adjust with more water to preference.

Notes

  • Dice the carrots and beets into small similarly sized pieces so they cook in the same time.
  • Steam the carrots until they are fork tender, using a knife to check they are cooked through.
  • Adjust the amount of vinegar and seasoning to taste preference. Add even more spice if you like!
  • As we use beets, this has a thicker consistency, but you can add a touch more water for a thinner sauce.
  • You can add a grind of black pepper for more spice, but this will mean it is not suitable for an AIP diet.
  • Please note that nutritional information is offered as a courtesy. It is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
