Chop the Bitter Gourd/Karela in medium-thin roundels, wash it well & coat it gently with some salt, turmeric & red chilli powders- Set aside
Dry roast the coconut as well (fresh or desiccated), until light golden brown- Set it aside too for later use
Now, pound/grate or make the ginger paste & keep rest other aforementioned ingredients handy & readily available…Add in the measured water (RT) to the dal, some salt & a tsp of pounded ginger & a tsp of oil (to avoid enormous spillage while pressure cooking)
Add in the Lauki chunks- Mix everything well together & Cover the pressure cooker/pan & allow it to cook for about 3-4 whistles- Turn off the flame & let the pressure subside, open the lid & check its consistency: To be well cooked but not mushy at all
Heat up a frying pan, over the medium flame: Add in the mustard oil- Drop in the marinated bitter gourds into the same & absolutely shallow fry until golden brown & well cooked- Transfer to a separate plate/dish
