Tricolour Adai

Adai is a typical South Indian Cuisine,it's a type of pancake made with rice and lentils. Adai by itself is a rich source of carbohydrates and protein. This tricolour adai is made with spinach and beetroot.
I always try to include spinach and beetroot in my regular diet. Spinach is extremely rich in antioxidants,it is also rich in iron,calcium,magnesium,vitamin A,C and many other vitamins and minerals.180 g of spinach contains 6.4 mg of iron.
Beetroot juice also reduces blood pressure,thereby it prevents cardiovascular diseases.To read more about beetroot click here.
