Beetroot Yogurt Curry
Since the past ten years, I had been trying a number of dishes with beetroots and this is the first time I am documenting one of them through my blog! This curry is really an easy one and if you have boiled beetroots ready with you, the whole dish is ready in a matter of minutes. A perfect summertime vegetarian dish, this curry is incomplete with the subtle flavour of curry leaves and mustard seeds. Yogurt adds interesting colour contrast to this amazingly light curry. You will love the dash of colour in this curry when you serve it. This is definitely a curry you want to dive in. And kids love it too!
