Ingredients:

Steps 1-2

– Cook the rice and let it cool down. Make sure that the rice is not mushy. Leftover rice works great as well. – In a pressure cooker, cook the whole beetroots for about 3 whistles. When the pressure goes down, peel the skin off the beets like you would do the potatoes. This is the easiest way to cook and peel the beets. Then using a coarse grater, grate the beets and keep them aside.

Steps 5-6

– Add the grated beetroot, dhania jeera powder, and salt needed and cook the mixture for 3-4 minutes. Since the beets are already cooked, we just need to cook until the excess moisture dries out. – Add the cooked rice and mix gently to combine. Check for salt and adjust if needed.
