Method

Tap a number to tick off a step. Tap a time to start a timer.

1. 1

   Soak the split green gram in water for 1 hour before starting.

2. 2

   Peel the bottle gourd and cut it into small rectangular pieces.

3. 3

   Heat the oil in a toap (deep vessel). When hot, add the chopped green chillies and asafoetida and let them temper.

4. 4

   When the chillies start popping, add the bottle gourd and stir for a while.

5. 5

   Add the split green gram, salt and turmeric and stir to mix well.

6. 6

   Add a little water and let it cook — only a little, because the gourd releases its own water as it cooks.

7. 7

   When the lentil and gourd are tender, add the dried coriander leaves and the mango powder, cook a few more minutes and serve hot.
