8. Turn off the gas & transfer all the mixture on greased butter paper.
9. Cover it with another butter paper & spread the mixture evenly.

Hello! I want to try this recipe. It sounds very interesting. I have a question though, you have mentioned cooked and grated beet root 1/2 cup. Does that mean I have to boil the beetroot and grate it? Or is it raw grated beetroot 1/2 cup which is then cooked in ghee as per recipe step 2?
