Ingredients
A small beetroot
250
ml
curds
200
ml
of water
3
teaspoon
cumin powder
¼
teaspoon
hing/asafoetida
Salt to taste
Instructions
Wash, peel and slice the beet.
Wrap the beet in an aluminium foil and bake at 200C/390F and bake till soft. I needed 10 minutes.
Let the foil cool completely then remove the beetroot.
Add the slices to the blender with 1 cup water and crush the beets till you get a fine paste.
Next add the curds, cumin powder, salt and hing.
Run the blender till you get a nice homogenous mixture. Take care not to beat for long or the butter will separate.
Adjust the thickness.
Serve immediately.
Notes
In case you are planning to serve on ice reduce the water to about 1oo ml.
