It looks as if small cucumber. Isn't it? We call it kovakka.
At our last residence, we do have 1 plant. It's a climber. Right? We need not buy from outside.
I make Thoran and Mizhukku puratti.
Mizhukku puratti....
Slice onions or shallots. Shallots tastes best. You can add 1 or 2 chilles too. Then some curry leaves. Slice kovakka in thin pieces (round)
Heat oil in a pan. add mustard seeds. When it pops, add curry leaves.
Then add kovakka and salt. then stir it and close tightly with a lid.
Cook it for 5-10 minutes. Stir occassionally. never add water.You can pour a spoon of oil on its top, it makes thoran more tasty. You can avoid this step

Thoran.....
Slice kovakka as small pieces....divide it as 4 parts and then slice them.
Do as above....
For gravy....coconut, chilli powder, turmeric, garlic and jeera(cumin seeds). Just blend once in a mixer. you can also add a little curry leaves while blending, on its top. never add water.
When kovakka cooked, add this gravy on the top and spread it. close the lid , let the steam go inside teh gravy. After 3-4 minutes(when gravy heats), open the lid and stir continuosly for 3-4 minutes. Your thoran is ready. You can pour a spoon of oil on its top, it makes thoran more tasty. You can avaoid this step. Serve both of them with rice.
Use coconut oil.

Kundru i think we say it parmal in Hindi. If it is so i don't kundru. :blink:
