The ridge gourd is a popular vegetable that is widely used in Indian cuisine. It is used as an ingredient in dishes such as pakoras, sambhar, dal, chutney and raita after it has been sufficiently refined with spices to optimize its taste. The ridge gourd has a ribbed dark green skin and white flesh that contains numerous seeds.
Storage & Use: To keep the ridge gourd fresh, it is best to wrap it in a plastic bag and store it in the refrigerator. It is often used in curries, dal, sambar, soups and fried dishes. To prepare a snack bajji, the gourd is cut into pieces, coated with chickpea batter and deep-fried.
Benefits: Because of its high vitamin content, the sponge pumpkin is particularly healthy and it upgrades every diet.
