Check out the Beetroot Poriyal recipe and if you like the video pls SUBSCRIBE to my channel.


    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 a 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 peanut. Beetroot was cooked to perfection within 3 minutes😊

    After I started using pressure cooker 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 quick. With a proper pressure cooker, curry can be made in no time.

    Beetroot curry in precise,
    ✅Made in the pressure cooker
    ✅Cooked within 3 minutes
    ✅Perfect for the busy morning
    ✅can be adopted for any quantity

    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 1/4 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

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