Beetroot Poriyal-2
Beetroot poriyal is my fav side dish. I love the vibrant red color so much. Even as a child dad says I have always had a liking towards it. He would mix it with plain hot white rice and by adding little ghee to it brings an amazing aroma to it. If you haven't tried it you must I love love love it. Goes well with all kinds of south indian main dish like sambar, rasam or any tamarind related recipes too. I love it with vatha kulambhu and moorkulambhu(buttermilk curry)
