Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 beet raw or roasted/boiled beet, medium; grated
  • 5-6 carrot baby; grated or chopped small
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • raw sugar a generous pinch
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • black pepper or red chili powder, a generous pinch

Tempering:

  • 1 teaspoon canola oil organic
  • asofoetida hing (or use garlic powder if you dont have hing. Add garlic powder once you take the oil off heat, a generous pinch
  • 1/4 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1 green chili or to taste, slit
  • 2 Tablespoons cilantro chopped

Garnish:

  • peanuts crushed and roasted; or shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. Grate beet and carrots. Add salt, sugar, lemon juice and pepper. Mix well and keep in a bowl.
  2. In a small pan, add oil, heat on medium.
  3. Add mustard seeds when the oil is hot.
  4. Let the mustard seeds start to pop, then add asofoetida and chili.
  5. Cook for half a minute, stir the chili so it cooks on all sides.
  6. Pour this into the beet bowl.
  7. Mix well. Top with Cilantro, peanuts/coconut. Serve.

Notes

  • Variations
  • Add some non dairy yogurt into the beet bowl. Mix and serve. It will look like thick deep pink Raita.(Indian Yogurt dip side). I used So Delicious Plain coconut milk yogurt. 
  • Add cumin seeds instead of mustard seeds to the tempering. - If you dont like the raw Beet taste, then add the grated beet and carrot to the tempering pan after adding green chili. Mix well and cook covered on low for 4-5 minutes. Stir 2-3 times in between.
  • Or use roasted or boiled beet.
