Also known as Table Beet, Garden Beet & Red Beet is a popular vegetable in our country. I have used the Red Beet for my dish. This dish give a additional beauty to our rice & curry menu because of its colour. This could be prepared in many ways, and the deep red roots of Beetroot are eaten either grilled, boiled or roasted. This has a sweet taste as well. Hope you will all enjoy this beetroot curry.
