Karela Sabzi
⏱️ Prep: 10 min🍳 Cook: 15 min
Ingredients
| 2 cups | 480 ml | chopped karela (bitter gourd), cut into rings |
| — | salt to taste | |
| 1 tsp | 5 ml | red chili powder |
| 1 tsp | 5 ml | cumin and coriander powder |
| 2 tbsp | 30 ml | jaggery |
| 2 tbsp | 30 ml | oil |
| 1/2 tsp | 2.5 ml | turmeric powder |
Instructions
- Sprinkle some salt over chopped karela. Leave it for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, squeeze karela and take out water. That would reduce the bitterness from karela marginally.
- Heat oil in a pan. Add karela and turmeric powder. Mix them very well. Cover it and cook it for 5 minutes or until karela is tender over medium heat.
- Add cumin and coriander powder, chili powder and jaggery. Mix them very well. Taste it once and then add salt. Cook it for 3 to 4 minutes over medium heat.
- Switch off the flame. Your Karela Sabji is ready. Serve it hot with Phulka Roti.
