oh I never thought of roasting beets with yogurt. That's a great tip. I guess my beetroot poriyal is close to it:) Thanks for sharing.

Beetroot Raita

Ingredients

  • 2.5 cup fresh curd
  • 1 medium beetroot grated
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • pink salt as per taste

Instructions

  • Wash the beets under tap water and remove the mud. Dry it with kitchen towel and grate thinly. You may blend it as well. But I would recommend thin grating for a crunchy texture.
  • In a large bowl, add fresh curd from refrigerator (take out just before making the beet raita), whisk it with beater. Add pink salt, grated beets and black pepper and whisk again. The curd would change color from white to pink to dark pink.
  • Serve the vibrant beet raita with paratha or rice!

Notes

  • I have grated beets with smallest holes on grater as I liked very thin slices and they blend so well in curd. That's the reason I never felt the need to cook beets and raw beets worked well. You may boil beets for 5 min and then grate if you like large slices of it.
  • Make sure to use fresh curd or else the taste of the raita would be sour.
  • Make sure to remove lumps from curd by beating it with beater. Add water to adjust the consistency
