How to Make Karela Amchoori/ आमचूरी करेले – Easy Step-by-Step Instructions.

Instructions to Make Karela Amchoori

Step 1: Prepare the Bitter Gourd - Begin by washing the karela thoroughly. Cut it into thin slices or small pieces, as per your preference. If you prefer less bitterness, sprinkle some salt on the slices and let them rest for 10 minutes to release excess water. After 10 minutes, rinse them off to reduce bitterness. (Time taken: 15 minutes)

Step 2: Heat Oil in a Pan - Place a pan on medium heat and add some oil. Once the oil is hot, add cumin seeds and let them splutter. This enhances the flavor of the dish. (Time taken: 2 minutes)

Step 3: Sauté the Bitter Gourd - Add the prepared karela slices to the pan and sauté them until they become tender and slightly browned. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. (Time taken: 10 minutes)

Step 4: Add Amchur and Spices - Once the karela is cooked, add amchur (dry mango powder) along with other spices like turmeric, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well and let the spices cook for 2-3 minutes. The amchur will give the dish its signature tangy flavor. (Time taken: 5 minutes)

Step 5: Garnish and Serve - After the spices are well-cooked and the flavors have melded, remove the dish from heat. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves for added flavor and color. Serve hot with chapati, rice, or as a side dish. (Time taken: 2 minutes)

Total Time: Approximately 35 minutes to prepare and cook Karela Amchoori.
