Baguette breads have become my favourite. Specially when it's made with my favourite veggie beetroot, it becomes highly nutritious.... Ingredients Whole wheat flour .          3 cups Beetroot puree .                  1 cup Dry yeast.                             2 teaspoon Sugar.                                    1 tablespoon Milk powder (optional).     1 tablespoon Any unflavoured oil.           2 tablespoon Sesame seeds(white).           1tablespoon Water to adjust dough Salt to taste Method Activate yeast as mentioned on the pack.(mix yeast and sugar in 2 tablespoon lukewarm water and keep aside for ten minutes till it blooms). Boil 2 medium or 1 large beetroot, cool down and make a puree of it(approx 1 cup puree). In a bowl take whole wheat flour, salt, oil, milk powder, beetroot puree and yeast mixture. Add water slowly as required and make a soft dough.  Cover it and leave it in a well oiled bowl  in a warm place for 2 hours till it doubles in size.
