Bottle gourd peel fry
Why should we throw the peel away? Here is a crispy snack for tea especially on a rainy evening. Instead of throwing it in a dustbin let’s try this. Over ripen peel is not preferred.
How to dry the peel? Wash the bottle gourd nicely. Cut into thick slender pieces. Rub the pieces with turmeric powder and salt to taste. Sun dry the pieces for a day for instant use, or for two days to store for further use.
Heat coconut oil in a pan and deep fry till golden brown. Care should be taken not to over burn.
Benefits of the peel
It is rich in fibre and essential minerals.
It is a low calorie food.
It helps reduce blood sugar.
It is good for intestinal disorders like digestion and constipation.
More over the contentment of trying all parts of a vegetable, enjoying and sharing with friends.
