Stuffed Snake Gourds/Chichindas
Snake gourd is also known as Chinese cucumber, chichinda, serpent gourd and padwal etc. Earlier I have written the recipe of its raita.Today I have made its stuffed sabzi. Here below is its full details:
250 grams of snake gourd
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 snake gourds. Here I have taken very raw.
2. Cut it lengthwise in the middle of it in the way that its lower part should remain as intact so that it can be stuffed. Now cut it into three pieces or as long as you require.
4. Now stuff the onion masala in the snake gourd with the help of knife and handle of spoon.
5. Put the oil in frying pan. Keep it on the low heat. Now place all the stuffed pieces in the oil. Close the lid and place one bowl of water on the lid. Keeping the water bowl like this, prevents the sabzi from burning.
6. After few minutes turn the snake gourds to the other side.
7. Close the lid and keep the water bowl again on it.
8. Cook it till it is soft.
9. Now take out all the cooked snake gourds in a plate and in the remaining oil put all the remaining onion masala and fry it on very low flame when it is done, again put all the sabzi in the masala.
11. Now mix it with very light hand so that all the masala stick to the vegetable.
12. Again cook it for 2 minutes without lid.
13. Delicious stuffed snake gourds are ready to enjoy.
Enjoy Healthy Cooking!!!
