Stuffed Karela

Ingredients:-

1. Bitter Gourd  (6) - small sized
2. Chopped Onions
3. Chopped Tomatoes
4. Chopped Green Chillies( Optional )
5. Groundnuts
6. Urad Dal
7. Chana Dal
8. Tamarind
9. Jaggery or Sugar
10. Coriander Seeds or Coriander Powder

Preperation:-

1. For the stuffing - Fry groundnuts, urad dal, chana dal and coriander seeds. Grind them along with them onion, tamarind( that was soaked in water for 5-10 mins). This paste should be thick and dry as much as possible. 
2. Slit bitter gourds length wise and remove the insides. I like seeds inside and so I add them back to the fry later.  Boil these in water. Add turmeric, salt and curds. Curds takes away the bitterness. Be careful as to not boil these too much that the outer layer breaks off during stuffing.
3. In a pan heat oil. Add chopped green chillies and onions. Add Tomatoes to the same and fry them till tomatoes are completely mashed.
4. Stuff the gourds with the filling and add them to the pan. 
5. If the gourds are very bitter, add jaggery or sugar at the end( around a spoon) and fry them for 5 mins.
