Beetroot, a highly recommended vegetable when one is low on hemoglobin. Hated by many for its raw taste and liked by many for its ultimate color. It is usually had as a salad or part of a salad. I don’t like beetroot, hence I never buy it. Last Sunday when we had been to a family friend’s place, they offered us delicious colorful cutlet. On asking about the recipe, we were told that it is a “beetroot cutlet”. I was shocked that how can it taste all that good. My kid was dancing and having it J

How to:
