SnakeGourd flavored with Sesame-Flax Seed Powder/Potlakaya-Nuvvula Podi Kura

Today I am sharing a very simple and healthy curry made with snakegourd/potlakaya which is flavored with Sesame-Flax Seeds Powder.

This is how the recipe is made-------------



Main Ingredients :
-------------------
Snake Gourd.............................2 (med. size)
Sesame-Flax Powder................1tbsp(or as per your taste)

Seasoning Ingredients :
-------------------------
Canola Oil.........................2tsp
Mustard Seeds.................1/4tsp
Cumin Seeds....................1/4tsp
Red Chilly........................2 pieces
Asafoetida........................pinch

Preparation :
-------------------
Wash the snakegourd and cut them into small pieces and pressure cook them for 1 whistle.Once the veggies cool down squeeze the water from the stemed veggies and keep them aside.


Place a pan on the stove and add oil to it.Once the oil heats up add mustard seeds,cumin seeds and red chilly to the pan.Once they start to splutter add asafoetida to the seasoning.


Now once the seasoning is ready add the cooked snakegourd(water is already squeezed) to the pan and stir well and cook for a minute.


Now add the Sesame-Flax Seed Powder to the pan of veggies and mix well so that all the flavors blend in well.


Delicious and healthy SnakeGourd Curry flavored with Sesame-Flax Seeds Powder is ready to be served.


Note :
--------

In this curry I did not use any salt as there was enough of it in the Sesame-Flax Seeds Powder to flavor the curry.



This recipe is going to CWF-WS:Sesame Seeds Event being guest hosted by Revathi of Kaarasaaram .
