Lauki Sabzi in Marathi
Time: 15 to 20 minutes
Serves: 2 to 3 persons
Ingredients:
2 cups bottle-gourd cubes (First, peel and deseed the bottle-gourd)
1 tsp + 1 tsp Ghee
1/4 tsp cumin seeds
2 to 3 tbsp roasted peanuts powder
1/4 to 1/2 cup milk
Salt to taste
2 dried red chilies
1/2 tsp urad dal
Cilantro, finely chopped
Method:
1) Heat 1 tsp ghee in a pan. Add cumin seeds and wait for few seconds. Add bottle-gourd cubes and little salt. Cover and cook for 4-5 minutes.
2) Then add milk and let the bottle-gourd cook. Add peanuts powder after bottle-gourd is cooked. Simmer for couple of minutes.
3) Take a small tadka pan. Add 1 tsp ghee and let it melt. Break the chilies into 2 pieces. First, add urad dal and wait till the color turns to pink. Then add broken chilies and stir with spoon. Pour this tempering over bottle-gourd sabzi.
Serve hot with chapati.
Tips:
1) Some people eat bottle gourd for fasting. In that case, skip the tadka of ghee- cumin-urad dal. This sabzi may be eaten as a one bowl meal. Also, it tastes great if accompanied with sabudsana khichdi.
