After done, add Bottle Gourd chunks to it. You can Pressure cook if desired. But I don't prefer that. Cover and simmer on a low heat until it's tender. It will take about 12-15 minutes. Now as a second last step, add Tamarind water that was squeezed thoroughly out of that ball of it. Also adjust Salt at this stage. Add a small bunch of chopped Coriander Leaves.
Allow it to come to a rolling boil on a medium high heat for about 8-10 minutes. Adjust consistency also without fail. It should be semi thick, neither too thick nor too thin or watery. As a final step, add the tempering to it. Mix well and it's all done. Enjoy!
