Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Grate the cooked beetroot and place it in a sieve or strainer set over the sink to drain excess liquid.

  2. Step 2.

    While the beetroot drains, heat the vegetable oil in a small non-stick frying pan over low heat. Add the ground cumin, smoked paprika, curry leaves, and black pepper, and let them sizzle for about 1 minute. Then add the mixed seeds and stir for 2–3 minutes until toasted and fragrant.

  3. Step 3.

    In a serving bowl, combine the drained grated beetroot with the Greek yogurt. Season with salt and lemon juice to taste, and mix well.

  4. Step 4.

    Just before serving, drizzle the sizzled spice and seed mixture over the beetroot raita.
