Ingredients Serving: 4

1/2 kg - Smooth Gourd or Turai or Touri
2 - Large Onions
Salt, to taste
1/2 tsp - Turmeric Powder
1 tsp - Red chilli powder or to taste
1/2 tsp - Garam masala
1/2 tsp - Chaat Masala
2 tbsp - Mustard oil

Instructions

Take fresh smooth gourd, wash and peel its skin. Cut it into three to four pieces. Make a slit in the side so that there is a cavity for stuffing.
For the filling. Peel the onion skin and grate them using a grater. Add turmeric powder to the grated onion along with salt and red chilli powder, garam masala and chaat masala. Mix thoroughly and with the help of a spoon stuff each piece of gourd.
Now heat some mustard oil in a pan and bring to smoking point. Put the flame on low and carefully place the stuffed gourds into hot oil. Keep changing sides and cook them uncovered till they are fully done.
Avoid over cooking them. They must be soft but still be able to hold their shape. Serve them hot with chapatis or naans.
