beetroot poriyal

beetroot poriyal

beetroot poriyal or any other vegetable poriyals are often made at home. like the kerala thorans, i find them easy to make. so when i make sambar, i end up making either a vegetable poriyal or thoran.

poriyal is a preparation where the vegetables are sauted in spices and topped with fresh grated coconut. for making poriyals, you can either grate or chop the veggies finely. here i have grated the beetroot. if you grate it takes less time for the veggies to cook. this is my standard recipe for making poriyal with any vegetables.

poriyals can be served as a side vegetable dish or even can be had with chapatis. in the pic i served the beetroot poriyal with arbi sambar and steamed foxtail millet.
