Beet Raita

Beet Raita
This bright and natural pink riata tastes as good as it looks. The combination of flavours is sweet as it is spicy. The mustard seeds make it grounding and warming, great for cleansing and for the blood. All doshas will find this side dish good, but Pitta doshas should eat it in moderation.
Beetroot, the star ingredient, helps metabolise oestrogen, aiding in removing excess hormones from the bowel and liver. Additionally, beetroot has been shown to lower stress hormone levels and even boost libido, making this dish both delicious and revitalising.
