Steps

20 minutes

1

Peel the bottle gourd thickly, wash the peels thoroughly, and chop them finely.
2

Cut the bottle gourd peels into thin strips, similar to green beans. Add two small, chopped potatoes. Prepare the dish as you would a green bean stir-fry: heat mustard oil, then add cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds, onion, ginger, and garlic. Sauté, then add the chopped peels and potatoes.
3

Once the vegetables are tender, sprinkle with cilantro, cumin powder, and garam masala. Serve hot for a delicious side dish.
