MyMusingsSangSpeak-Pet Puja - Beetroot Salad(Beetroot Raita/Koshimbir)

Beetroot Salad(Beetroot Koshimbir)
This recipe has such a lovely, tempting colour that I am sure nobody will be able to resist it. In addition, it is fully loaded with nutrients and vitamins. Beetroot is high in beta carotene and iron, and hence, should be used often in diet. Many are familiar with beetroot juice. Beetroot can be made into a subji, salad or burfi(dessert). This salad is simple to make and great to taste.

Ingredients
Beetroot – 1 no
Curds – 150 gms
Salt – As per taste
Sugar – 1½ teaspoon
Cumin Powder (optional) – ¼ teaspoon
Coriander Powder (optional) – ¼ teaspoon

Method
Peel the beetroot and pressure cook for about 10 minutes. Allow the beetroot to cool and then, grate it. Flavour the curd with salt, sugar, cumin and coriander powder. Mix the grated beetroot with the flavoured curd and the salad is ready to be eaten. Serve chilled as it tastes better when it is chilled.
