Want to serve your family a sabzi recipe that is both tasty and nutritious? Boil down on Lauki Tamatar Sabzi that perfectly fits the mould! Here is a video recipe to make this lauki tamatar curry.
The mention of Lauki or bottle gourd for meals gives mixed feelings, doesn’t it?
Well, it did give me at least! I never liked the usual sabzis made using Lauki but whenever my darling mom made any of her Lauki specialties like Lauki ki Barfi, Lauki ka Halwa, Lauki Nazakat, Lauki ki Kheer, Lauki ka Thepla, Lauki ki Chutney, Saunfia Lauki, Kashmiri Al Yakhni, Lauki Chana Dal I used be the first one to hog on them and the story has not changed till date.
That’s why I always feel that even the most common vegetable can turn into an awesome accompaniment like Lauki Tamatar Sabzi recipe simply by adding onions, garlic, green chillies, curry leaves, red chilli and you bet it does taste great!
In order to make this interesting Lauki Tamatar Sabji, all you need to do is start with heating oil or ghee in a pressure cooker.
Once it is reasonably hot, add cumin seeds, add turmeric powder, chilli powder.
Then goes chopped tomato and lauki along with a cup of water to be pressure cooked. And then within minutes your ultimately delish side dish is ready to be served with parathas.
The flavours of tomato and lauki blend so very well that you won’t be able to stop with just one serving of this luscious Lauki Tamatar Sabzi.
With fresh bunch of Lauki growing up in my home garden, these days, I never leave a chance to make Lauki Tamatar Sabzi whenever I reap one tender bottle gourd.
And trust me, the instance you make this sabzi, it sure to feature on your go to sabzi list, ladies. This winter, make this healthy sabzi and savour it with all the joys of the world! here I show to make it.
