Pudalangai masal (Snake gourd masal) - Preparation time 15 to 20 mins
Snake gourd is rich in iron, calcium, fibre and vitamins. Improves laxative and is an antibiotic. We have to add Snake gourd to our food so it will be good for health. We can make dry curry, kootu and take along with rice or chapathi. When i asked my sister in law to cook some different side dish for chapathi she prepared this (as per her daughter's suggestion) curry.
Ingredients:-
Pudalangai - 2 Chopped to thin slices (remove the inner portion of snake gourd)
Tomato - 1 Chopped to small cubes
Onion - 2 chopped to strings
Green chili - 2
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Salt - As required
Sambar powder - 1tsp
Curry leaves - 10
Mustard seed - 1/4 tsp
Urad dhal - 1 tbsp
Oil - 2 tbsp
Preparation method :-
In a tawa heat oil. Add mustard seed, when splutters add urad dhal and fry till it becomes golden brown.
Add slitted green chili, chopped onion and sortae for few mins.
Add tomato and fry for 5 to 10 mins. Now chopped pudalangai goes into the tawa. Add turmeric, sambar powder and sprinkle little water. Cover the tawa and stir occasional so that the gravy wont stick to tawa.
Cook till all the vegetables are tender. Finally add curry leaves and transfer to serving bowl.
This can be taken with rice or chapathi. It will be tasty and healthy dish. You can add little water and make as gravy or take as dry masal. I liked it, you might also like.
