Spicy Beetroot Poriyal

     As you can view in my previous post Here and Here, am not a lover of sweet vegetables like carrot and beetroot. Even i dont know, how and what to do those veggies. One day, suddenly realized i have stopped feeding it to my kid completely. Though it is a healthy for all ages, i resumed my prepation and somehow googled but still am not satisfied with those recipes. One fine day, being my savior, my lunch mate bought a beetroot recipe as her side dish, i tasted it immediately and to my surprise, it reminds my mom preparation which she use to keep it as side dish for roti. Will i leave the chace??!! Got the recipe from her immediately and preparing it as a MUST side dish atleast weekly once.


ALL YOU NEED:
Diced Beetroot 1/4 kg
Chopped Onion 1 No.
Chopped Tomato 1 No.
Chilly Powder 1/2 spoon
Ginger-Garlic Paste 1 spoon
Pepper 1 spoon
Coconut 2 pieces
Salt To Taste


METHOD:
     Grind coconut and gingergarlic paste to a fine mixture. Take a pressure cooker, add beetroot, chopped onion, chopped tomato, chilly powder, grinded coconut mixture, pinch of salt and add a glass of water. Pressure cook it for 3 whistles. Once the pressure gets release, Keep a pan, pour the pressure cooked ingredients, boil it until it absorbs all the excess water. Meantime grind a spoon of pepper coarsely. Once the water evaporated, add the powdered pepper and adjust with salt, do fine sauting for 5 mins. Put off the flame, and serve hot with roti or steamed rice.

Note: You can also add boiled channa dhall, which add extra taste to it.
