We love quick veggies with masala base like mushroom Tawa masala, egg dry masala, egg curry masala and prawns masala. In a similar way you could make bhindi masala or gavar masala. For variation, you could add tomatoes.

I have used an aluminium vessel preferably nonstick pan would be better to use for this recipe. As veggies tend to stick to the bottom in any metal vessel apart from nonstick pan or pots.

Our whole meal was tendli masala, egg masala curry with rice. Hubby relished this for dinner and requested to give some for next day in tiffin 😉

When you buy ivy-gourd ensure they are tender while you slice them the seed shouldn’t be too red. If they look too red that means they are over-ripen and won’t taste good.
