Here is a delicious Beetroot Koottu Recipe that is very popular among children and can be made in a short time. Beetroot is a vitamin and mineral-rich vegetable. It also has fiber and is a healthy partner for your bones, kidneys, and pancreas. This root vegetable has anti-cancer properties. It detoxifies your body, rejuvenates your stamina level, and also helps in lowering your blood pressure level. South Indian states like Kerala and Tamilnadu usually add Beetroot in their daily routine lunch.

This recipe is easier than other beetroot dishes. This will go well with steamed rice, chapati, and poori for its sweet flavor. Today I think to share this recipe with you.
