Sorakaya Sprouts Curry

A healthy nutritious and tasty curry to go with either rice or roti. We had it with both.

Ingredients
Sorakaya/bottle gourd - 1 long, peeled, and chopped into small pieces
Moong dal Sprouts - 1 cup
Oil - 1 and 1/2 table spoon
Cumin seeds - 1 tea spoon
Red chilli powder/Green chillis chopped ( I did not have green chillis at home yesterday so went with red chilli powder option)
Dhania powder - 1 table spoon
Salt to taste (I used 1 and 1/2 table spoon, you can use according to your taste)
Lime/lemon juice - 1-2 spoons

Method of preparation
1) Take a kadai or pan and add oil to it.

2) After it is heated, add cumin seeds to it. if you are planning to add green chillis then add it at this point. Add sorakaya pieces and spouts to it. Add a little turmeric and then cover and cook until sorakaya pieces are almost done.

3) At this point, add red chilli powder (if you wish to) along with salt and dhania powder.Optionally you can add tomatos at this point and cook for a minute until they are nicely done.

4) Just before turning it off add lemon juice to it. Your curry is ready to serve and eat.
