The leafy portion of the beetroot plants are edible too. This year we had some beets from our small kitchen garden :) These plants are very easy to grow. I made poriyal with the beetroot leaves.
Method:
1. Wash and finely chop the beet leaves and its tender stalks, chop onion and green chillies.
2. Heat oil in the pan. Add mustard seed and urud dal, after mustard seed splutters, add green chillies and onion.
3. When the onion turns soft and brown, add the chopped greens, chilli powder and salt. Stir it well.
4. Reduce the heat, cover the pan and cook till the greens are soft and dry, now add the shredded coconut and stir for few minutes.
5. Transfer it to a serving dish.
