Preparation:
Place gourd, green chillies, turmeric powder, water and salt into a pan. Boil until the gourd becomes tender.
Add in the blended/grounded ingredients and continue to simmer over low heat.
In a separate pan, heat oil and when heated, fry the mustard seeds and dried chillies. When chillies turn brown, add curry leaves.
Remove from heat and transfer to the simmering ash gourd.
Pour in the yogurt and stir to mix well. Just as the curry is heating through, off the heat.
