Red has always been an attractive color so what if it’s a vegetable.
Recently my husband was advised to increase his iron content in food and that is probably first time I thought of introducing Beetroot in our family. It wasn’t an easy task , as my husband almost out rightly rejected the Beetroot stir fry and lot many other things which I offered. And then we I came across this recipe of Beetroot kabab and after making some modifications it just suited our platter quite well. Beetroot Kabab is not just nutritious but were delicious enough for my four year old to ask for a second serving. As Beet gave the color , gram flour provided the right texture and body to the kababs.
Beetroot kabab can be a great tiffin recipe and can be given along with Burger Bun too and both your kid and you would be happy with the results.
You can enjoy them with Pudina chutney or tomato sauce any time.
