Beet Root Kurma

BEETROOT KURMA
Kurma is generally made with Potato and other vegetables. My Recipe is with Beetroot!!!!!
Yeah, this combination of Beet (Sweet) Root and spices makes this dish different, tasty and am sure will be liked by all.
This dish will go very well along with Phulka, Jeera Rice, Paratha..Poori. In breakfast, this can give good company to Toasted bread.
