Apple and beetroot compote

Prepare all ingredients. Prepare jars: wash and sterilize, boil the lids.

Cut the apples into large wedges and remove the core.

Wash, peel, and grate the beetroot on a coarse grater.

Fill the jar with apples about one third, pour boiling water to the brim, and let it sit for 10 minutes.

Pour water into a pot, add sugar, a cinnamon stick, and bring to a boil.

Add the beetroot, boil for a few minutes, and let it cool for 30 minutes.

Strain the syrup and bring it back to a boil.

Pour hot syrup into the jar.

Seal the jar, turn it upside down, wrap it in a towel, and let it cool completely.

Flip and put away for storage.
