Ingredients:
2 medium-sized Ghiraula (Snake Gourd), peeled and cut into cubes
1 large Potato, peeled and cubed
2 teaspoons Garlic, minced
2 medium Tomatoes, finely chopped
1-2 Green Chilies, slit (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon Panch Phoran (a classic blend of five spices)
½ teaspoon Red Chilly powder (adjust to heat preference)
Salt to taste
½ teaspoon Turmeric powder
1 teaspoon Coriander/Cumin powder
2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
Health Benefits:
Before we dive into the cooking process, let's shed some light on the health benefits. Ghiraula is known for its high water content and is a great source of dietary fiber, making it perfect for digestion. Combined with the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric and the antioxidants found in garlic, this dish is a powerhouse for boosting immunity and ensuring overall wellness.
Cooking Process:
Preparation:
a. Start by washing the ghiraula and potato thoroughly. Peel and then chop them into bite-sized cubes.
b. Mince the garlic finely, chop the tomatoes, and slit the green chilies.
Cooking:
a. In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium flame. Add the panch phoran and let it sizzle for a few seconds until it releases its fragrances.
b. Add the minced garlic and green chilies. Sauté for a minute until the garlic turns golden.
c. Introduce the cubed potatoes. Stir well, and cook for about 2-3 minutes.
d. Mix in the ghiraula cubes. Stir and blend them well with the potatoes.
e. Now, sprinkle the salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and coriander/cumin powder over the vegetables. Mix thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are well coated with the spices.
f. Add the chopped tomatoes and a splash of water (if necessary), cover the pan, and let it simmer on a low flame until the vegetables are tender and the flavors meld together beautifully, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
g. Once done, check for seasoning and adjust according to taste.
Serving:
Garnish the Ghiraula Tarkari with fresh coriander leaves (optional) and serve it warm with a side of steamed rice or your favorite bread. The blend of spices, tender ghiraula, and potato makes this dish not only a delight to the palate but also a testament to the simplicity and richness of home-cooked meals.
