Notes

If you prefer add condensed milk as a sweetener instead of sugar.
Add blanched almond along with the beetroot to grind for a creamier kheer.
Few Possible variations are Beetroot Rice Kheer , Beetroot Sago Kheer. I have the beetroot sago kheer recipe posted in blog already.
You may also skip vermicelli and prepare is as plain beetroot kheer. The options are plenty.
Add a tsp of Rose water , if you like the flavor. Rose flavor goes very well with beetroot.
