Sophie,
So is your exam over? When are you starting your workout?

Priya,
your bitter gourd curry reminds me that there is bitter gourd lying in my refrigerator have to cook something from it.. can you tell me your recipe for this?

 

Vidya,

Me and my Husband are big fans of this bitter gourd.It really depends on what kind of person you are.

Lot of people soak bitter gourd in curd and cook and take out water from it to reduce bitterness.But I don't do that.Because we can really eat it.

I use similar way using oven to avoid oil.I can cook 2kg of bitter ground with 11/2 TBS in this method but I use oven.

There are lot of ways do it.It just depend on your taste.

Mahanandi » Bitter Gourd Chips (Karela Fries)

1.I cut them in circles.
2.Put 1/2TBS and toss with salt and chilli powder + lot of garlic
3.Keep in oven baked for 30min
4.Add 1TBS oil and add onions and toss them and add the Bitter gourd to it and toss them for 4-5min and it will done.
5.We will eat mostly with dals.

Or you can make like any "pulusu" which you make

1.Cut onions and fry
2.Add bitter gourd and let it cook
3.Add salt+Chilli power
4.Add tamarind + some jeggary to it
5.Add whatever the spices you add normally
5.Cook until it done.

I am going to try this over baked tindora
