Beet Sabji is a delicious vegetarian recipe that is healthy, colorful and a crowd pleaser. The Indian spice combos of tumeric, ginger and cumin really jazz up the vegetables. Excellent dish to prepare in advance and serve at a lunch or dinner party.

You will Need:

  • Diced carrots, yellow beets, daikon & chopped chard
  • 2 Tablespoons oil
  • Tumeric, Ginger, Cumin, Salt, Coriander, Cilantro to taste

How to Prepare:

  1. In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Stir-fry carrots, beets and daikon pieces for 1 minute; then cover and cook for 5 minutes. Uncover, stir and test for tenderness. Cook up to another 5 minutes, if needed.
  2. When vegetables are almost softened to desired texture, add dark greens, cover and sauté until greens start to wilt.
  3. Meanwhile, in a small pan, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil. When oil is hot but not smoking, reduce heat and add turmeric, ginger and cumin seeds. Heat until cumin seeds turn brown. Stir in coriander.
  4. Toss oil mixture with vegetables. Stir in salt and cilantro. Serve Sabji in bowls garnished with chutney if you have some!
