Potlakaya pesarapappu kura || snake gourd moong dal curry || pudalangai pasi paruppu poriyal

Hi friends, today's recipe is snake gourd moong dal curry || snake gourd curry || potlakaya pesarapappu curry(in Telugu) || padavlkayi palya(in Kannada)|| pudalangai pasi paruppu poriyal (in Tamil) || Padwal curry (in Hindi). It is popular South Indian lentil based snake gourd curry.This snake gourd curry is prepared adding soaked moong dal(pesarapappu) and fresh coconut , ginger spice mixture. It is very delicious and healthy curry that you can have with hot steamed rice or even with roti's and also it is very easy to prepare. This is dry version curry, we can prepare many recipes with snake gourd like snake gourd chutney, bajji, kottu, eguru and my favorite is stuffed snake gourd 😋. This curry is prepared without using onion and garlic so we can have it on fasting days with roti's happily (No Onion No Garlic). Snake gourds which i used today are small type and they are very tender, so i did not boiled it separately.
