Tindora are prepared in different ways and I thought to give a twist to the preparation, and it turned out perfect. I grounded the masala, stuffed the Tindora and steamed it before sizzling them. Let's cook it,
Bharva-Tindora

- Fresh Tindora (Indian Gourd), Gram Flour (Besan), Garlic, Lime, Cilantro
- Turmeric Powder, Chilli Powder, Cumin-Coriander Powder, Jaggery, Salt

Ingr1

Recipe

- We'll roast the Gram Flour, otherwise it tastes Raw and roasting it sweetens the taste.
P1
- Roast the Gram Flour, keep stirring it, until it turns brown,
P2
- I used grounded masala, I roasted the Dry Red Chillies, Coriander Seeds and Cumin Seeds,
P3
- Once they are finely roasted, crush them in mixer to turn powder form,
P4
- Slit the Tindora into half, do not cut them, as we will stuff masala inside.
P5
- We are done with all the preparations, next let's prepare the feeling for Tindora.

- Mix the roasted gram flour, cilantro, fennel seeds, grounded masala, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, lime juice, cumin-coriander powder, jaggery and salt together; add oil to mix it well,
P6
- Fill the masala into half slit Tindora, also keep some masala aside which we will use while cooking.
P7
- Steam cook the Tindora, so the Tindora remains crispy, also we will need little cooking,
P8
- Steam it for 10 minues but observe while it is being ready, not to overcook it,
P9
- Heat oil in a pan and add mashed/grated garlic, asafoetida and saute till it,
P10
- Add the Stuffed Tindora and saute it for 2-3 minutes,
P11
- Add half cup water and let it cook for a while,
P12
- Add remaining Masala that we saved earlier to the mix and cook it well,
P13
- Cook on medium flame until all the water is soaked into the curry,
P14
- Let it cool down for couple and minutes and the curry is ready to enjoy.
