Instructions for Sorakaya Masala Curry Recipe - Andhra Style Sorakaya Curry

    1

    To begin making the Sorakaya Koora / Masala Curry recipe, firstly peel the bottle gourd and cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Keep it aside.

    3

    Release the pressure immediately, by running it under cold water. This will prevent the bottle gourd from getting over cooked.

    Heat a heavy bottomed pan, add mustard seeds, urad dal, sesame seeds, and red chillies. Allow it to crackle and the dal to turn golden brown.

    5

    Stir in the curry leaves, the cooked Sorakaya/ bottle gourd, sambar powder, salt to taste and stir well to combine.

    6

    Cover the pan and cook the Sorakaya Koora for 2-3 minutes until all the masala comes together.

    7

    Once done, check the salt and adjust according to taste. Turn off the heat, transfer to a serving bowl and serve hot.
