Ingredients
- 2 medium Fresh beetroot
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Low-fat plain yogurt
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
Directions
Step 1
Peel and chop the beetroots into large chunks. Add them to a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until tender.
Step 2
Drain the cooked beetroots and allow them to cool slightly. Then, blend them into a smooth puree using a blender or food processor.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the beetroot puree, whole wheat flour, low-fat yogurt, water, olive oil, salt, and cumin powder.
Step 4
Mix the ingredients together with your hands or a spatula until they form a smooth and pliable dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour as needed.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls. Roll each ball into a thin round tortilla using a rolling pin, about 6-7 inches in diameter.
Step 6
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place a rolled-tortilla in the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until lightly browned and cooked through. Repeat for all tortillas.
Step 7
Serve the beet tortillas warm, as a delicious and colorful wrap or side.
