I am a votary to the belief that all parts of vegetable is usable and hate to discard unless they are inedible. In a previous post I have described as to how to make use of orange peel to prepare a pickle. Generally we peel off the ribbed gourd and discard the peel. I learned a very good use of this peel to make a very interesting item in the form of a chutney and in today's post I describe how to make this.
Ingredients:
1 cup Peel of ribbbed gourd
1/4 cup Urad dal
4 nos Red chilli
1/4 cup Coconut scrapings
1 tsp Salt
4 nos Red chilli
1/2 tsp Asafoetida
1 tsp Tamarind paste
2 tsp Oil
1/2 tsp Mustard seeds
Making of the chutney:
Heat 2 tsp oil in a pan along with all the ingredients except coconut and tamarind paste saute for 2-3 minutes. Allow the contents to cool then grind with coconut and tamarind paste adding 1/4 cup of water. Garnish with crackled mustard seeds and curry leaves.
