Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Beetroot
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 10 leaves Curry leaves
- 2 Green chilies
- 0.5 cup Grated coconut
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander
Instructions
Wash and peel the beetroot. Grate it using a food processor or grater.
Heat coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add mustard seeds to the oil. When they start to splutter, add cumin seeds, curry leaves, and slit green chilies. Sauté for about 30 seconds.
Add the grated beetroot to the pan and stir well to combine with the spices.
Add turmeric powder and salt, mixing thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook for around 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid sticking. The beetroot should be tender.
Once the beetroot is cooked, add the grated coconut and fresh coriander. Stir well to combine.
Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing all ingredients to blend together and the flavors to combine.
Remove from heat and serve hot as a side dish or with your choice of keto bread.
