Ingredients

  • 2 pounds beets, peeled and sliced
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Steps

  1. Place beets into a large saucepan and pour in enough water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until beets are easily pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. Drain.
  2. Whisk 1/4 cup water, brown sugar, vinegar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves together in a saucepan over medium heat. Add beets and butter and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Cook until sauce thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve hot or cold.
