Even though we had a splash of rain and thunderstorm on Monday still hot..Can u imagine standing near the hot stove without window in the kitchen..so hot..I actually reduced my cooking time..not trying any new things..I have to go through this hot climate for another 4 months.. cant imagine.. I wanted to make something cooling..we know mor kozhumbu but this is simplified version..learnt from my keralite Friends..This is very easy and can be done in jiffy..I loved the soothing effect of bottle gourd and cooling of yogurt..

2 cups yogurt ( use sour yogurt/home made)
1/2 tsp turmeric
salt to taste
7 green chillies(adjust to ur taste)
1 tbsp grated coconut
1 tsp cumin and mustard
3 redchillies
curry leaves
oil

Preparation:

Clean the bottle gourd/Sorakay and dice them to bite size piece.

Make a smooth paste with green chillies and coconut.

Heat oil in a pan, do the seasoning with mustard, cumin, redchillies and curry leaves.

Add bottle gourd and fry for few minutes.

Add ground paste, turmeric and salt.

Add 1 cup water, cover and cook over medium heat.
