Andhra Food Video: Kakarakaya Koora-Bittergourd fry

After a short vacation to Hyderabad, I’m starting to love the city’s culture and delicious food. Still in a holiday mood, what better way to hunt and share a food video recipe from Andhra Pradesh? Though this one’s not as popular as Biryani.

I have never liked Bittergourd much. The only time when I like having anything of bittergourd is when it is made into a Pitla / Kootu (a thick gravy like Sambar). Anyway, this video looked more tempting for me to try more of Karakaya (Bittergourd in Telugu) / Karela (in Hindi) / Pavakkai(in Tamil) or Hagalkai (in Kannada).

This one comes from Gayathri Vantillu through Youtube.com. Known as Kakarakaya Koora (Bittergourd fry) in Telugu, this andhra dish might just be good for a pleasant evening snack when the mood is just right.

Send in your Andhra Recipes and I’ll publish it in this blog or in the Indian Food Kitchen main website
