Dark-red vegetable (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beetroot

(Other definitions for beetroot that I've seen before include "Food" , "one to get pickled" , "Vegetable cooked or used in salads and pickles" , "vegetable's produced" , "Essential ingredient in borsch" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
