I’m sharing an easy Beetroot Raita recipe today. You will feel like eating this dish just seeing the soothing pink colour. Raita is a yogurt based side dish which you serve with rice or flat bread. The best part about raita is that it can be fixed in 10 minutes using easily available ingredients.
Beetroots are extremely good for health. I just love beets as they add beautiful color to any dish. I have added mint leaves which further add some freshness to the dish. Summer is already here is Bangalore and I can only think of eating refreshing, cool and light. This Beetroot raita is perfect for this weather. You can also try some eggless cupcake with beetroot or even a burfi with beets.
So, sharing the beetroot raita recipe and hope you all try it out and share the feedback with me.
