Beetroot chutney is a smart way to include the beet in your day to day diet. A fantastic accompaniment to hot steamed rice with a dash of fresh ghee. It is quite different from the usual thuvaiyals or chutnies, we made. This chutney stays fresh for 2 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Groundnut oil 2 tbsps
Chopped shallots 20 pcs/3/4 cup

Saute until dal fried golden brown.
Add shredded beetroot and saute until the water content absorbed.
