Beet Subji
Vegetables - Beetroot -

INGREDIENTS

* 4-5 beets
* 2-3 t of oil
* 1/2 cup of peanuts, coarsely powdered
* 1/2 t of mustard seeds
* 1/2 t of chilli powder and / or 2-3 red chillies (vary by
tolerance!)
* Salt to taste

METHOD

Grate the beets and set them aside. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add
the mustard seeds, and wait until they start to sputter. Throw in the red
chillies (if any) and fold in the greated beets. When the beets are about
half done, fold in the peanut powder and chilli powder (if any) and cook
until done. Stir well to prevent sticking and burning at the bottom.

Serve with chapatis and/or pilaf.
