Free Recipe Library: Beetroot Curry

Ingredients

• 12 oz (375g) raw, peeled beetroot cut into 1/4" (6.35mm) thick slices about 1/2" (12mm) wide.
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• I sometimes use a little sesame oil as a substitute
• 1 large, fat, clove of garlic chopped as small as you can
• 1 heaped teaspoon of cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon of corn flour to thicken, ordinary flour will do
• Cayenne pepper - I use 1/4 teaspoon, this makes it subtly hot
• 1/2 lb (250g) chopped tomatoes (tinned are ok)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Some water, about 1/4 pint is usually enough but be prepared to add more if things get sticky.
