BEETROOT GREEN PORIYAL

Beetroot green poriyal is very tasty and easy to make.  Whenever I get the opportunity to pick up the greens, I never miss it as I would like to personally eat this dish along with rice and curd or rasam.  I also made pulivitta masiyal with this.

Since leafy vegetables got lot of health benefits, do include this greens in your menu atleast twice in a month.
