Ghiya( Bottle Gourd) Raitaa
Dudhi......shuck! hahah this used to be an exclamation when i found Dudhi in my
lunch box.....than wht i use to do is by skipping my lunch & go on hunting in
canteen for something in snacks & then back to class late after recess & stand
outside the class as a punishment by teacher......phew! awesome day..
In evening when returned home Mom removes the lunch box for washing finds that
dudhi back the way as it was packed
So one day my smart Mamma decided to pave the way out of it & then one fine day i found a very new dish
in my lunch box which i kept guessing by the time my friends finished & it was
just that i tasted it so little & all of sudden it disappeared from my lunch
box .......oh really was not able to resist the temptation that took me
throughout the day to think about & wait to reach home & grab mama & ask "Mom
What had you given in my lunch box today ,sorry but cant still make out what
was it that was so chatpataaa..."
& you know what that was a not April month but still i thought that was a 1st
time when i was made such a big fool to know that it was a "Dudhi......sh...k!
So really wont mind sharing the Recipe stolen from moms kitchen by which even you can think of fooling
around those haters just like me;-)
here we go .....

1 bowl grated Dudhi
1/2 bowl Curd
Curry leaves
Oil
Mustard
Cumin Powder
1/2 tbspn Black salt
1/2 tbspn chopped chillies.
1 pinch pepper powder.
1/2 tbspn udid dal
1 Lemon.
Method :

it for Gajar halwa,
Then once its done remove the hot water from it till becomes dry after all water
is soaked out from it,
then add curd to it & mix well with the help of spoon,
add all the masala's to it like black salt, cumin powder , pepper powder.
on other hand put oil in a pan wait till it's hot & ready for the tarka,
then add mustard & curry leaves u can also add udid dal to taste once ur tarka
is ready add this tarka to dudhi curd mix.
you can keep this mix in fridge to cool down with your salad & serve it like a
salad with food or can have it just with plain rice or roti by just squeezing lemon on
the mixture at the time of having it...
ummmm......isnt that very chatpata "Ghiya kaa Raita"
