Bottle Gourd Pulissery



Ingredients:
21/2 Cup - Bottle Gourd
1 - 11/2 Cup - Water
11/2 Cup - Yogurt/Curd
1 Tsp - Turmeric Powder
Salt as required

To Grind:
1 Tbsp - Coconut
1 Tsp - Cumin (Dry Roasted)
1 Tsp - Coriander (Dry Roasted)
2 - Green Chilies

For Seasoning:
1 Tsp - Grated Ginger
2 Tsp - Onion
1/2 Tsp - Mustard
2 - Red Chilies
1 Pinch - Hing
1 Pinch - Fenugreek
Few Curry Leaves

Procedure:
1) Peel the skin and cut them to small cubes. Pour just enough water, add turmeric powder and boil them till the bottle gourd is cooked and soft.
2) Add the ground mixture and bring them to boil.
3) Now add the beaten yogurt and salt. Switch off the stove as soon as it started boiling. Too much of boiling will curdle the gravy.
4) Now add the seasoning and serve it hot with rice.
Note: Seasoning with coconut oil gives very good flavor.
