15 Ingredients
1/2 tsp dhaniya powder
salt to taste
2 tsp oil
1 tsp jaggery powder
2 tbsp fresh coriander (finely chopped)
1/4 tsp methi dana seeds
250 grams gilki (sponge gourd) - peel & chop into cubes
1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
1 medium tomato (finely chopped)
1 green chilli (finely chopped) - optional
1 tsp ginger (grated)
1 tsp besan
1/2 tsp red chilli powder (optional)
1/2 tsp haldi powder (optional)
1/2 tsp jeera powder
Heat the oil in a pressure cooker.
Add hing & allow to sizzle for a few seconds.
Now add the methi dana seeds, ginger & green chilies, and saute for a few more seconds.
Add the onions & cook until translucent.
Add the tomatoes, haldi powder, red chili powder & 1/2 tsp salt.
Cook until tomatoes become soft & mushy.
Now add the jaggery powder followed by the besan.
Sautee for 3-4 minutes while constantly stirring so that the besan does not burn (if it starts to brown, add a teaspoon of water from time to time).
Cook this until the oil leaves the sides of the cooker.
Now add the gilki. Mix well.
Add 1/4 cup water & give 5-6 whistles in the cooker.
Once the pressure is released, open the cooker & dry the water of the vegetable on a high flame.
Add dhaniya & jeera powder & adjust the salt to taste.
Garnish with fresh coriander.
