Directions
Fried Karela Chips (Bitter Gourd), Here’s a vegetable that you might not find in your regular grocery store, but Asian and Indian markets usually stock them They’re very bitter unless you use salt to draw as much moisture from them as you can, then they’re quite mild Some people prefer the bitterness These make a great snack or salad garnish and I’ve also seen karela in Indian potato curries and even stuffed I’ve made them substituting regular white flour for the rice flour and they turned out great More addictive than I expected 😳 Time includes the 1-hour moisture-drawing process , Recipe looks good and simple Going to try it out now Silced karela are full moons unless you have sliced the karelas in half and deseeded them and then sliced Thank you for the receipe , I love this! My dad used to make it for me every summer (he and I were the only ones who liked it) They are quite strange, but they do have something really addictive to them I have always liked very strong tasting food, and I would advise that if you are someone who tends to like things rather bland that this is NOT for you!
