Cooking Steps
Step 1: To begin making the Karwar Style Ambade Udid Methi Recipe (Hog Plum Curry), firstly, scrape away the outer layer of the bitter gourd, clean it from inside and cut it into thin rings
Step 2: Apply a bit of salt to it (I used 1/4 teaspoon), toss well to coat and keep aside for about an hour to do away with the bitterness of bitter gourd
Step 3: After an hour, wash the chopped bitter gourd thoroughly and keep aside to drain
Step 4: Use a little oil and roast the bitter gourd rings on low heat in a kadai till crisp
Step 5: Peel and clean the Ambade meanwhile when the bitter gourd is roasting on low heat
Step 6: Heat a little oil in a kadai (a few drops each time) and lightly roast the coriander seeds, urad dal, methi seeds, rice grains, peppercorns, asafoetida piece and dry red chillies separately on low heat
Step 7: As soon as each ingredient changes its colour, remove from flame and keep aside to cool
Step 8: Once cooled, grind all these ingredients in a mixer grinder along with the grated coconut, using required water to form a smooth paste
Step 9: Add to this paste to a cup of water and mix well to form a semi-thick gravy and pour in the kadai
Step 10: Now, add turmeric powder, ambade/hog plum/amtekai, jaggery, roasted bitter gourd rings, salt to taste and keep on a high heat stirring occasionally till it reaches boiling point
Step 11: Once it starts boiling, lower the heat and simmer for about 8-10 minutes or till the ambade are cooked and soft
Step 12: If you feel that the gravy has thickened too much by now, just add some water to bring back a medium consistency which is desirable
Step 13: Check for seasoning and adjust salt and jaggery if required
Step 14: In a tadka pan, heat a bit of oil for tempering and when the oil is hot, add mustard seeds and asafoetida
Step 15: Pour this over the prepared udid methi
Step 16: Serve Karwar Style Ambade Udid Methi Recipe (Hog Plum Curry) along with Steamed Rice and Sol Kadhi for a South Indian meal
