This is a super quick version for making beetroot poriyal. Tasty and healthy poriyal can be made within 3 minutes using in Pressure Cooker.

Of late, I am getting addicted to pressure cooker and instant pot-based recipes. This one is yet another RK sir's pressure cooker-inspired recipe.

Growing up, Beetroot was one of the least popular veggies for me. I always prefer grating the beetroot or chopping it in a chopper to reduce the cooking time. I avoid cubed beetroot to reduce the cooking time. A few months back, my friend Kavitha said she made beetroot that day and learned this recipe from her.

I have pretty much followed the recipe, except for the tempering and peanuts. Beetroot was cooked to perfection within 3 minutes😊

After I started using a pressure cooker for direct cooking, cooking has become super easy. The only challenge is to cut vegetables. In fact cutting vegetables takes longer when compared to cooking time😊

Nowadays, I cut the beetroot the previous night and keep it in the fridge. During busy mornings, curry can be made super quickly. With a proper pressure cooker, curry can be made in no time.

Notes

  1. Tempering can be done separately and added to the curry
  2.  A 3-liter cooker can also be used
  3.  If you are trying for the first time add 1 tablespoon of water and cook after releasing the pressure to remove excess water
  4.  Use at least ¼ quantity of the Vegetable to the cooker size to avoid the cooker from getting burnt
  5. For any non- watery vegetable, this recipe will work
  6.  Use a 2-liter cooker that whistles regularly
  7.  Cut the beetroot into small dice

  1. I make a lot of beet salads, but never paired it with coconut. It sounds so good. Hope to try it next time.
