Beet & Pear Puree
- 3 medium beets
- 5 ounces unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup minced onions
- 1 1/2 pears - peeled, cored and minced
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons fruit flavored vinegar
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Wash beets, and place in a roasting pan. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until tender. Set aside to cool. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion, pears, sugar, and vinegar; cook, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes.
When the beets are cool enough to handle, peel and coarsely chop. Puree onion mixture in a food processor with metal blade. Add salt and 1/2 of the beets; pulse 4 to 5 times. Add remaining beets, and pulse 2 to 3 times.
