En Anubhavam

I was wondering how to include beetroot in food other than dry curry, rasam and chips. I soaked whole green mung dhal to make sundal. I prepared sundal with half the quantity of mung dhal and with remaining green mung dhal i tried making this vadai,
It was good with the taste of ginger, beetroot and chili. When consumed hot it will be crispy in outside and soft inside.

Ingredients:-
Soaked green mung dhal - 1 cup
Ginger - small piece

Green chili - 1
Red chili powder - 1/2 tsp or to your spice level
Salt - to taste
Saunf - 1 tsp
Beetroot - 1 small size (peeled and grated)
Oil - To deep fry
Onion - 1/2 finely chopped (optional)

Preparation method:-
In a mixer grind the soaked green mung dhal along with saunf, ginger and green chili.
