Lauki. A very verstile and healthy vegetable that can be had in various forms. Be it lauki ke kofte, dal dudhi, dalgosht, lauki ki kheer, lauki ka halwa and so on. Even it's peels are beneficial as they have high level of vitamin C. It helps in maintaining the blood pressure and also brings down bad cholesterol. So next time don't throw away the peels. Prepare this delicious sabzi using the peels. :)
