Watermelon subzi is completely my new try with the fruit i had at home. It is spicy version of the gravy. You can skip adding green chilli if you like it to be little sweet. 

This is a watery gravy because the watermelons makes it so. If you want it in gravy consistency smash the vegetables a little before adding watermelons and a tsp rice powder or corn flour. mix well. Note that it should be done before adding watermelons.

Adding additional vegetables is of your choice.I have used carrots, beans, capsicum and spring onions. You can even add potatoes, peas or any other vegetables. Keep it limited to 3-4 vegetables.

If you want only the melon, those vegetables can be skipped. Do not stir the gravy a lot after adding melons if you like to have the pieces in gravy.
