beetroot carrot raita recipe with step by step photos.  this is a healthy, nutritious and beautiful colored raita. when i saw the color of the beetroot carrot raita……. i was like wow 🙂

somewhere i read that the entire meal should be colorful. a meal full of different colors is not only balanced in the nutrition aspect, but also subtly affects our nadis and chakras. i have also added some chopped capsicum and onions to the raita to give it a crunchiness. however this is optional.

i must say that the beetroot carrot raita went very well with dal-rice. It was so nice and different from the other raitas that we usually have at home. in fact i was only having the raita even after my meal. you can also serve this beetroot carrot raita with pulao or biryani.

few points for beetroot carrot raita

1. please note, i have not tempered the raita as i did not think it was necessary. if you would like to add more flavor to the raita, you could temper it.
2. if you are making this beetroot carrot raita for fasting or religious vrat, then add rock salt (sendha namak). also avoid adding onions when making for religious vrat or fast as onions are usually not allowed for most religious vrat.
3. the raita goes well with most rice based dishes and also with biryani or pulao. the raita taste so good that you can just have it plain.
