Khatte Meethe Pethey ki Sabzi | Sweet & Sour White Pumpkin
Petha !! well I know most of the people hate eating petha or kaddu. Especially if I talk about children, they always shy off such healthy green vegetables. In my case too as a kid, I never liked it much until my Mum came up with this finger-licking version of the same that simply tasted divine with a perfect balance of sweetness, sourness and spiciness. Since then, one of my absolute favorites, I often make it now for lunch during the weekends and enjoy it with crisp pooris or even plain parantha and some boondi raita on the side. This is also one of the most demanded delicacies at my home during the Navratri fasts. Sans of garlic, onion and some of the whole spices, it still tastes delectable and makes for a real treat paired with kuttu ke atte ki pooris and plain yogurt. I will be sharing both fasting and non-fasting versions; do try and you certainly won't be disappointed. Khatte Meethe Pethey ki Sabzi Ingredients White pumpkin (petha/sitaphal,) - 500 g
