HALVA -BEET ROOT

1 c. beet root (grated)                 1 c. sugar
1 c. Ricotta cheese                     1 stick butter (unsalted)

Steam cook the grated beet root without water in a pressure cooker for 5 minutes. Remove from the cooker and let it cool at room temperature. Over medium heat in a fry pan, add sugar, steamed beet root and Ricotta cheese. Keep stirring the mixture, adding the melted butter until it comes to a consistency that it would not stick to the fingers. Remove from fire. Grated carrot can be used in place of beet root. 5 servings.
