Bottle Gourd Coconut Milk Curry

1. Take one medium size Bottle Gourd, peel skin and chop into small pieces.

2. Take half cup curd in a pan, add 200ml water and make thin butter milk. Add the bottlegourd pieces into it, add salt, curry leaves, 3 chillies and cook in medium flame by placing lid until all the water evaporates. Don't add too many chilies as this curry tastes good with mild spice.

4. Now, turn off flame and take another bowl, add oil, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, urad dal, 3 red chillies, curry leaves and pour into the curry. Serve with Roti or rice.
