Moru moru Pavakkai Varuval (Crispy Bitterguard fry) (Crispy Karela fry)


Some people love Pavakkai (bitterguard/karela) and most does not. In my childhood days, my mother used to cook it as a curry but i never touch it as it will have more bitterness. But in my college days, my friend zhagazhi, used to cook and bring it and i never feel the bitter taste in it and it will be delicious. From that time onwards i started eating and loving the pavakkai...

Since i have understood the goodness and nutritious value in that, i want my kids to eat it and i try it in different varieties to remove its bitterness. Now my kid love to eat it, when i do the pavakkai fry...

Ingredients
  • Pavakkai/Bitterguard/Karela - 1/4 kg
  • Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
  • Chilli powder - 1.5 tsp ( can be adjusted according to your taste)
  • Coriander powder - 1/2 tsp
  • Besan - 1 stp
  • Corn flour - 1.5 tsp
  • Rice flour - 1/2 tsp
  • Salt as needed
  • Vinegar - 1/2 tsp ( or lemon juice)
  • Ajinamoto - a pinch
  • Curry leaves for garnishing
  • Oil for frying



Method
  • Mix all the ingredients except curry leaves and oil.
  • If you need water, slightly sprinkle on it.
  • Allow to marinate for about an hour.
  • Fry in oil in small batches. (the oil must be very hot)
  • Fry the curry leaves in the same oil and garnish the bitterguard fry
  • Serve hot.



[ Note: The masala's used to remove most of the bitterness in the pavakkai(karela), but if need to remove it fully, 1 tsp of jaggery can be added during marination. I didnt do like that since my kid eat it as it is].
