Beetroot rice

Just to share with you……

Every body knows how to make beetroot poriyal. I made a slight variation on my own to this poriyal and made this dish.Beetroot  is one of the few vegetables which give the rice color, flavor and  sweetness. I hate to peel out,grate or cut the  beetroot  because of the stain caused by it.  So I don’t cook it often. Oneday somewhere I read that all food s (both vegetables and fruits) which are purple in color are very good for health.  So, I started cooking this veggie often. You can say as beetroot pulav also.
