"Beetroot as a potential functional food for CANCER''.
I love this beautiful coloured rasam because of its distinct flavours of garlic & mint which makes it different from the usual beetroot recipes.
Beetroot is as healthy as its bright red colour , it helps in decreasing obesity, risk of cancer, diabetes & heart diseases. It is rich in calcium, vitamins, fibre & potassium .
The red colour in beets come from compounds called betelaines which helps in producing immune cells & body enzymes that help fight cancer development .
Though the exact cause of breast cancer is not known, Researchers have found the things that increase the risk of breast cancer. These include hormones , lifestyle choices & environmental changes. Breast cancer survival rates have been increasing & the number of people dying have been gradually going down . Much of this is to the widespread support for breast Cancer awareness & research.
Things you can do to lower the risk of Breast cancer.
1)Ask about breast cancer screening 2) Become familiar with your breast through self - breast exam .
3) Exercise most of the days of the week.
4) Drink alcohol in moderation.
5) Maintaining the healthy lifestyle.
6) Eat the correct diet.
Here is 1 such recipe to suit the Indian taste buds & at the same time encourage people to eat more & more beets . This recipe brings out best of both the worlds, the spicy rasam & earthy beet.

Rasam Rasam
This recipe originated in Southern India, especially from the state of Tamil Nadu. Every meal in south india usually ends with rasam, as it is said to be a digestive. It can also be served as soup to increase the appetite before a meal. Rasam uses aromatic principles like pepper, asafoetida, cumin, coriander, fenugreek, basil leaves which are valued medicinally. This makes rasam a food to ease cold and runny nose. Here i have presented my variant of this broth, which is quite tasty...

Amla Rasam Amla Rasam
#Post16 - Amla (Gooseberry) has amazing health benefits. It has the highest content of vitamin C, fiber, iron and zinc. They are equally good for our hair / scalp, heart, controls blood sugar and is also good for the tummy. Hence it is recommended in our daily diet. So let me share a simple rasam (soup) that I made out of some amla. It can be enjoyed as a piping hot soup during winter, as an appetizer or as a side dish with plain steamed rice. Rasam with hot steamed rice and accompanied with some papad / chips is the best comfort food that anybody will vouch for. And if it is made with the super nutritious and healthy amla, then there is nothing like it. I am a total fan of rasam of any type. It is light, tangy and a little spicy, coming from the peppercorns. So do give it a try and relish it piping hot as a soup during winter. #goldenapron

Spicy Tomato Soup (Tomato Rasam) Spicy Tomato Soup (Tomato Rasam)
This is a spicy & sour curry. You can eat it with rice or drink it like a soup. If you like the taste of curry leaves, add it at the beginning before the tomatoes. You can filter the "Rasam" & drink or you can drink it as it is. Add a lot of "Rasam" to the rice, eat the rice & then drink the "Rasam".That's a style I know.
