Directions

• To begin making the Beetroot Curry, we will first cook the vegetables together in a pressure cooker.
• Place the beetroot, onions, ginger, garlic and green chillies into a pressure cooker adding a cup of water, turmeric powder and salt. Cook for about 2 whistles. After the first two whistles, turn the heat to low and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and allow the pressure to release naturally. The vegetables continue to cook in the pressure that was created in the cooker.
• Once the pressure releases from the cooker, open the cooker, stir in coconut milk,coriander powder, garam masala powder and bring the beetroot curry to a brisk boil. Turn off the heat and transfer the beetroot curry to a serving bowl.
