HOW TO MAKE Beetroot idli and dosa

                                                 BEETROOT IDLI AND DOSA RECIPE

Beets are highly nutritious and loaded with health-promoting properties. They can support the health of your brain, heart, and digestive system. They provide a good source of folate and manganese, and they also contain potassium, vitamin A, iron, and other nutrients.

 

BEETROOT COLOUR FADES WHEN IT IS OVERCOOKED – The colour in the beetroot is due to the presence of a water-soluble red pigment known as betacyanin. The pigment is located in the cell vacuole not in the chloroplast. The betacyanin pigment only loses its colour when in hot water due to denaturation of plasma membrane whereas in cold water the plasma membrane remains intact, so no colour is released.

NOTE – don’t over cook or steam ,else the colour fades .
