Beet er Malpua/ Indian sweet Dessert with Beetroot


Malpua is a delicious sweet Indian pancakes. Many parts of India is celebrating New year according to their own regional calender months. So to make this festive time more sweet and delicious I am sharing this malpua recipe. It is not like the regular malpua , it has its own twist in its size and texture but on the whole it is too delicious and I think at the end that matter much.
For the friends of Andha pradesh and Karnataka - Happy Ugadi, friends of Maharastra – Happy Gudi Padwa, Happy CHETI CHAND to all my Sindhi friends and for all my Bong friends world over - Happy Poila Boishak. A delicious sweet treat for you all and a wish that -May the festival of lights be the harbinger of joy and prosperity. As the holy occasion is here and the atmosphere is filled with the spirit of mirth and love, here’s hoping this festival of beauty brings your way, bright sparkles of contentment, that stay with you through the days ahead. Best wishes and A Very Happy New Year to all.
