                                                    Baby Bitter Gourd With Gram Flour

An interestingly appealing dish, when I first saw it I was a little apprehensive, but anyway, I thought it was a must try recipe.  Tasted yummy and different. So here goes the way of making it.

Ingredients

6 baby bitter gourds, seeds removed and boiled in salt water for about five minutes and drained

This to be added as the last step
1/2 cup Bengal gram flour, slow dry roast till it leaves an aroma, kept aside

For roasting and making into a powder you need
2 tbsp of sesame seeds
1/2 cup grated dry coconut
1/2 cup peanuts
3 dry red chillies
Salt to taste
1 tspn raw mango powder

Method
First stuff the masala in each bitter gourd, then in a kadhai take some coconut oil, add the bitter gourds, roast them for sometime, add the  remaining ground powder, saute for a while, once done well, add the bengal gram flour and mix well, lastly add a little water to make a semi dry dish. Cook  covered till the rawness goes away.
Serve garnished with coriander leaves. Good with roti, phulka and bhakri too.
