Sue, try it.
Bitter gourd sabji and pachadi are a favourite in our house too. Earlier my daughter used to hate it. But off-late he has picked up the taste and started liking it.
Glad to know this.
That is such a simple recipe! You know, just the other day, hubby and I were discussing looking for easy to make bitter gourd recipes that did not taste bitter..and here you shared it for FT!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Gald to know you like it, Shilpa!
My family also liked Bitter Gourd. I had bitter goured in sambhar once and I liked it. In this recipe, there is no tempering? I am going to try it very soon.
I know bitterguard has so many health benefits and my mom always tells me to have it in lunch! But I cant fall in love with this bitterness! he he 🙂
Your this recipe sounds interesting because I love curd so much. So I think, I should try this once atleast.
I’m not very fond of lauki but my dad loves the halwa. I like the recipe. Might try 😉
The dish looks yummy. I have never cooked bittergourd as dont like it but this is something new and will surely give it a try.
While we like bitter gourd, we have never made it with curd. I think the addition of curd would mask the bitter taste and would taste good too. Will try it out. Thanks for the recipe, Vasantha!
Thanks for the recipe, Vasantha.
I love any variation of raita & making bitter gourd palatable with it piques my interest. I think I’ll try it by shallow frying & adding it to the pachadi. 🙂
