JHATPAT CHATPAT- FOR QUICK, EASY AND TASTY RECIPES

Prerequisite: Mixer/blender

Beetroot masala is a curry which I learnt to make from my mom. It is eaten with chapatis. The spices in the curry reduce the natural sweetness of the vegetable, thereby making it tastier. Thanks mom!

Ingredients Used:
1/2 kg beetroot
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1-2 tsp cooking oil
1 sprig curry leaves

For masala:
2 onions
7-8 garlic cloves
2 cloves
2 pieces of cinnamon(1/4 inch)
1/4 coconut (grated)
4-5 red chillies-roasted (byaaDgi)
1/4 lemon sized tamarind
Salt to taste
1/4 cup water

How to make:
Cut beetroot into small pieces of desired shape. Grind the masala ingredients in a mixer.
Heat up cooking oil in a frying pan. Add mustard seeds and wait for them to crackle. Then add curry leaves, chopped beetroot, salt, water and cook with a lid on. When almost done, add the ground masala and cook for 5-8 minutes. Beetroot masala is ready.
