1 tablespoon finely chopped Coriander Leaves
1 tablespoon Oil
Salt to taste
Directions:

Tips and Variations:
  • For variation, use grated beetroot instead of chopped one. It will also take less time to cook.
  • Add 1/4-teaspoon coriander powder in step-2 for nice flavor.
  • You can also cook beetroot in a 3-liter capacity steel/aluminum pressure cooker for 2-whistles and then temper it with spices instead of cooking it in a pan.
  • To make beetroot poriyal without coconut, skip step-5 mentioned above.
Taste:  Mild spicy and crunchy
Serving Ideas:  Serve it as an accompaniment with sambar rice, curd rice or rasam rice and as a part of everyday meal.
