Salan is an accompaniment which is usually had with the Biryani's. There are several types of salan, the most common being Mirchi Ka Salan. Here, we have used tindora or Ivy Gourds to make the salan. Ivy gourds have many nutritional benefits. It is highly beneficial for the diabetic patients as it contains the natural insulin to lower the sugar level in the body. The freshly made salan masala adds a nutty taste to the dish. 

Serve the Tindora Ka Salan along with Paneer Biryani, Vegetable Biryani or any other Biryani of your choice at your next home party. You can also serve a Coriander Tadka Raita along with this Salan and Biryani.
