Hi,
The beetroot was so watery after grating it.Yours looks dry.Did you squeeze out the water.?

Hi Sanjana,
No, we do not squeeze out the water/juice. Sometimes, the beetroot is too soft (old) and not firm enough and that tends to make the grating difficult and (like you said) watery:(
Next time, pick beetroot that is firm and not soft, it’ll help:)

Thanks for the recipe of this delicious and very nutritious salad.
Just one correction – in Maharashtra (where this salad hails from) it is called Koshimbir and not Kosambir.
Thanks again.
