what is beet and garlic salad made off?
  1. what is beet and garlic salad made off? healthy beetroot garlic salad is made from 1 1/2 cups boiled beetroot cubes, 1/2 tsp crushed garlic (lehsun), 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1/2 tbsp lemon juice and salt to taste. See images below of list of ingredients of  beat and garlic salad.

how to boil beetroot?
  1. To prepare beetroot and garlic firstly scrub and wash the beetroots. In India, red beets are highly popular and easily available but, fancy supermarkets do have other variants and you can use any type of beetroots like a candy cane, yellow beet or Crimson Globe, Crosby Egyptian and Early Wonder variety.
  2. Transfer them in a pressure cooker. 
     
  3. Add enough water. 
  4. Pressure cook for 4 whistles. Allow the steam to release naturally and open the lid carefully. 
  5. Remove the beetroot and cool them slightly. 
     
  6. Peel off the boiled beetroots while they are still warm and discard the skin. You may end up with pink hands and pink stains so, make sure you use an apron and possibly gloves to prevent that. If you have a marble kitchen counter then be very careful while doing this procedure. 
  7. Place the beetroots on a chopping board and cut them into cubes. You can even cut them in slices or wedges if you like. Another way to cook beetroot is by roasting them. Compared to boiling it’s a slow process but, the end product is very delicious. For roasting the beetroots, place beets in foil-lined baking pan and top with prepared dressing. Bake for 25-30 minutes at 200°C or until tender. 
  8. Your boiled and chopped beetroot cubes are ready to use in the Indian salad.

benefits of beetroot
    1. Beat Inflammation with Antioxidant Rich Beet: Chukandar has an important colour pigment called betalain, which not only gives beet its deep red colour but also has powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and fungicidal properties. This in simple terms means that beetroot is a good way to build your body’s defense against various diseases. 
    2. Beat LDL Cholesterol with Nitrate Rich Beet: The Nitrates present in beet aid in detoxification and helps lower bad cholesterol (LDL) levels. This avoid any blockage in the arteries. Try Beetroot Hummus and serve them with carrot and cucumber sticks, instead of fat laden readymade chips.
