Today I had bottlegourd prawn curry. The bottlegourd is called lauki or lau. It is very good for health. The prawns are added with the bottlegourd curry where potatoes are also given. It can be eaten both with rice and also chapatis.

I made bottlegourd and chana dal( black gram lentils) Sabji today morning for lunch. I am going to relish it with hot rice, ghee and bharwa karela ( bittergourd). I had made bharwa karela last night and have enough to go for few meals. I love bottlegourd, it is healthy, light, yummy and so refreshing . Your meal sounds yummy and healthy.

@sathviksouvik I love Karela, especially the stuffed ones. It's a great blood purifier and is a knowm medicinal one for diabetes.
