the combination of dal and ridge gourd looks perfect. Hey ur pictures are too good !
I have a question. The ridged gourd's peels are used. what do you do with the ridgegourd then? Do you add that to the dal too?
Also. after preparing the paste from the peels, you are squeezing out the water from the paste. Are the adding this water to the dal or the sueezed out paste.
Never eaten this dish so far and this sounds interesting.
u cant add it to dal Kay. ridgegourd is used to make another dish someother day by storing or try tamperin after cooking in milk to make curry.
u add the squeezed paste(thats how it bcomes ridgegourd dal right?....the water is bit bitter in taste.)
it is interesting dish cuz we use all that we can with ridgegourd here except the ends ofcourse. lol
