Chuqandar Ki Subzi
Beetroot might not be a favorite of many, but both me and my husband love this hearty maroon root vegetable.
I love this simple curry along with warm parathas. It reminds me of my mother’s cooking and my childhood.
Chuqandar Ki Subzi – Beetroot Curry

Beetroot – 3, peeled and chopped
Canola Oil – 3 tbsp
Onion – 1, medium size, chopped
Ginger garlic paste – 1 tbsp

Salt – 1/2 tbsp
Turmeric powder – 1/3 tbsp

Fry it until it is golden brown in color. Add the, ginger garlic paste and fry for a minute. Add chopped tomato, red chilli powder, salt and turmeric powder and give it a stir.
