Beta vulgaris, commonly known as beet or beetroot was native to the Mediterranean but spread eastwards into West Asia. Beets contain sodium, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, iodine, iron, copper, Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and C. Scientists have found that a daily glass of beetroot juice can help to lower high blood pressure.
My mother is also constantly watching my recipe log. She suggested including this chutney.
As most of the chutneys are grinded raw, fresh pure water should be added. Do not use tap water directly. I got this advice from a doctor a long time ago.
Ingredients:
Beet – 1 (medium)
Tomatoes – 2 (medium – chopped)
Red chilies – 4
Cashew nuts – 10
Salt - desired amount
Tamarind - one spoon
Oil - as required
Ajwain seeds – ½ teaspoon
Preparation:
Peel the skin off beet.
Grate them.
Heat the oil in a kadai. Add the cashew nuts and fry till golden color. Remove from kadai.
Now add the grated beet root and sauté for 4 to 6 minutes. Then remove.
Add the chopped tomatoes and red chilies fry it. Add the tamarind and sauté for 1 minute.
Dry roast the ajwain seeds till it crackles.
Throw all these ingredients with salt and blend it.
No need to season.
