Instruction

  • Add the chopped beetroots in a pressure cooker along with salt and 2 tbsp of water.

  • Heat oil in a pan.
  • Once the oil is hot, add urad dal, mustard seeds and heeng and let them crackle for a few seconds.
  • Add green chilli, ginger and curry leaves and cook for another few seconds.
  • Add the steamed beetroots and fry for a minute.
  • Adjust the salt.
  • Add coconut and mix well.
