ayurvedic notes
Great for building rakta dhatu because it is high in fiber and fats.
about
To all people who don't like beets: they get sweeter the longer you cook them. I add a dash of turbinado or raw sugar to help them along. Coconut also cuts the bitterness and adds a smooth, rich flavor. Pungent ginger complements and freshens the heaviness of coconut.
preparation
Chop the beets and puree with equal quantity water in a blender. Add all ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for a half hour.
questions & comments
And blood building iron. Coconut balances pitta. Pitta may want to replace black pepper with cloves, fennel seed or coriander powder. Cloves in small quantity have a sweet vipak (post digestive effect). Beets are actually friendly with many spices!
