The festivities this year are back-to-back, and I think all of us have indulged ourselves where food is concerned. It’s time to give our tummies a break and balance out our meals to include food that is healthy and gut-healing.
Today I am sharing a recipe with you that has helped me through detox times, as a mid-day snack and as a meal when I feel the need to eat light – Beetroot Salad. Its got 2 ingredients which are super healthy and I love – beetroot and yoghurt
Did you know that beetroot is
- Fiber-rich
- Folate (vitamin B9)
- Manganese
- Potassium
- Iron
- Vitamin C
- Protects the liver from inflammation
- Lower blood pressure
And the dressing is made with dahi or curd which is an excellent probiotic and helps heal the gut. The spices and herbs that I have used help heal the body and restore balance.
So without further ado, let’s start cooking.
Ingredients
- Cumin Seeds/Jeera
- Curry Leaves/Kari Patta
- Coriander Leaves/Dhania Patta
- Ginger Paste
- Green Chilli Paste
- Boiled Beetroot
- Curd
- Oil
- Salt
Method
- Chop the beetroot into bite-sized pieces
- Heat oil in a tadka pan and add the jeera & kari patta. Wait for it to splutter
- Pour this tempering into the bowl of curd and mix well
- Add the fresh coriander, ginger paste, green chilli paste and the salt
- Put the beetroot into a bowl
- Top it with the curd dressing just enough to coat the pieces & give it a mix
- Garnish it with fresh coriander
