But it is almost different from the market bought , looks wise , taste wise too. Healthy and tasty combination of vegetarian recipe which you ever get in one recipe. So try this tempting dish .

By the way it is very simple and easy recipe too. if you ask about nutritional value of bottle gourd then it has enough source of vitamin C and Zinc. Cholesterol and Fat free vegetable it is actually. Good source of Calcium. So try this recipe and serve with plain rice and dal.
