Stuffed Ivy Gourd (Tindora)
Tindora (Ivy gourd) is also known as kundru, tendli etc. Whenever we feel like eating stuffed tinda or parwal, I make stuffed tindora, as in thailand these vegetable are not available. Taste-wise is not too much difference as all are from gourd family. Tindora is available here in Thai market, but in a very big size. It takes long time to be soft. Therefore, I make it in microwave. It is very easy to make in it, though takes enough time. Earlier I used to make stuffed vegetable partially in microwave and partially in frying pan. But here I have made this fully in microwave. Here below is the whole process:
250 grams of Tindora
1 big grated onion
2 tbsp of grated ginger
salt to taste
1 tsp of turmeric powder
1 tbsp of coriander powder
1 tbsp of fennel seeds powder
1 tsp of mango powder/imli paste
1 tsp of red chili powder
1/2 tsp of garam masala
2 tbsp of oil
Method
1. Wash, and peel the tindoras.
2. Cut it lengthwise in the middle of it in the way that its lower part should remain as intact. I made 3 lengthwise cut so that masala can be filled properly.
3. Peel the onion and ginger and grate it coarsely. Mix all the dry spices. Now the filling mixture is ready.
4. Now stuff the onion masala in the tindoras with knife and handle of spoon.
5. Put the oil in microwave safe bowl. Now roll the tindoras in this oil. Close the lid and microwave it on 100% power for 7 minutes.
6. Now take out the bowl and turn the tindoras to the other side.
7. Close the lid and keep in the microwave again.
8. Now set the microwave for 7 minutes
3 minutes for 100% power
4 minutes for 50% power
9. By this time it became soft. Now take out the bowl and put all the remaining onion masala on the tindoras and mix it with spoon very gently.
10 Microwave it with 2 minutes with lid.
11. Now turn it again with very light hand so that all the masala stick to the the vegetable.
12. Again microwave it for 2 minutes without lid.
13. Delicious stuffed tindoras are ready to enjoy. It took 18 minutes in total time. sometimes it takes little more time. Time may vary.
Enjoy Healthy Cooking!!!
