I am one of the few who loves bittergourd for the bitterness. Love it in any form and this surely is a great way to tone down for those who dont like pavakai.

I have never paired bitter gourd with any other vegetable. This combination of bitter gourd with potatoes sounds interesting.

This is a smart way to feed Bitter Gourd to kids actually. I recently cooked another version of karela which I would be blogging soon and is a hit at home. Idea is to mask the bitterness and then include them esp for kids then they eat it like any normal sabzi. Looks yum and would taste excellent with rotis or phulkas.

We are fans of bitter gourd but the kids never even touch it. This looks like a wonderful idea to get them to eat this vegetable as they can eat any dish with potato!
