Ridge Gourd skin stir fry
This recipe is a simple stir fry with minimal spices. Ridge gourd skin stir fry is made with ridge gourd skin which we mostly throw away after peeling. It is said to have very good fibre strength in it.
We can make chutneys, chutney podi and many more recipes with it. We cook peechenga vattichathu with the ridge gourd which is one of my most favorite and comforting dish for the rice.
