    Aloo beet greens sabzi recipe - This is healthy, homey dry vegetable preparation made with potatoes, beetroot leaves and stems along with few basic spices. This goes perfect with roti, paratha.

    Apart from this, I also make dal with beetroot leaves.

    Step By Step Photo Instructions:

    1) Chop the beetroot leaves, also chop the stems. My beetroot stems are pretty thin and tender, so I chopped it without peeling it. But if yours are thick then you might need to peel it or remove those strings. You will feel and see those strings as you chop whether it needs to be peeled or not.

    2) Wash them very well. I keep them in cold water in a bowl till I prepare other ingredients for this sabzi. By this time all the dirt will settle down at the bottom of the bowl. And then you can remove those leaves from the water with your hand. Alternately you can wash them before chopping.

      Well, you’ve done it again. This recipe is fabulous. You know, since I started using your recipes, we have no desire to eat at our local Indian restaurant. I am sure this has saved us many, many calories, and quite a bit of money too. You are a public service!5 stars

        Did not expect a lot tbh, but turned out delicious! Made some minor changes such as adding a bit of asafoetida and did not have any fresh chili
