Beetroot is good for health too, Beetroot helps in improving blood flow, lower blood pressue. Beetroots are good sources of vitamins and minerals, such as folate, manganese, potassium, iron, and vitamin C. Generally beetroots are taken raw, but if we cook them they are really tasty and yummy too. I prefer to make beetroot kutu and different varities of curries like frying, poriyal etc., I love the colour of the vegetable. I don't like to wash it too much to reduce the colour. It is really a natural colour. Adding moongdal to the vegetable increases the volume of the curry. By adding moongdal to the vegetable we can hadle unexpected guests who prefers no garlic no onion curries.
