As autumn is approaching, the variety and freshness of the veggies are gradually increasing in the markets. Now a days it’s more convenient to spend time in vegetable markets and fill my bags as quite a few good fresh vegetable shops have opened up near my place. What caught my attention is one of a recent article where it said that health benefits of beetroot
Ingredients:
2 medium Beetroots
2 small Potatoes
1 Carrot
1/2 tsp Mustard seeds
1 tsp finely chopped Ginger
2 Green Chilies
1/2 tsp Jeera powder (dry roast jeera on tawa and then grind to make a fine powder)
2 tsp Poppy seeds
Salt to taste
Oil to cook
Method:
Wash, peel the beetroot, potatoes, carrot into thin lengthy pieces. Heat oil in a thick bottomed pan or kadai and crackle mustard seeds. Immediately add finely chopped ginger and stir it for 1 minute. Add green chilies and add potatoes. Season with salt and fry for 2 minutes. Now add beetroot and stir it nicely. Cover the pan to cook and cook it for 5-6 minutes or until the beetroot is soft. The slightest bruise by stirring allows beetroot to bleed during cooking and leaves a nice color. Now add roasted jeera powder, poppy seeds and mix well. Remove it from flame and serve immediately with chapati or parota.
