The weekend flew. Belated Mother's Day wishes to you if you. Getting past the greetings, I have another 'thoran' for you. I know that most of the thoran is made the same way and you don't need another recipe yet again. However, this post is for you who have not yet made beets thoran.

ReplyDeleteeda...i am making this today.....i normally waste this beet leaves.:)...thx for bringing out this recipe.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so healthy and beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and delicious looking!
ReplyDeleteSad to say, but growing up, "beets" as I knew them were to be avoided at all cost! Just imagine... canned beets, drained and drenched in orange juice concentrate with margarine and baked, well as a grown up I have one word, YUCK!!!!
Amazingly, I overcame my objections via my own terms....roast them in their skin until tender or steam them, slice thinly and toss with olive oil, slivered onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, garlic, cumin and habanero pepper and you have a delicious room temperature or chilled side dish !!!! We are currently growing our own as they are very expensive!
Thank you for the wonderful recipe and post.
