Karathe kismur or bitter gourd chutney

This is one of my favorite dishes. This spicy chutney goes well with boiled rice pez. This also can be prepared with dried fish or dried shrimps. When you are making fish kismur, add garlic to the following ingredients.

Ingredients:

2 bitter gourd, finely cut into cubes
1 big onion, finely chopped
1 cup grated coconut
5-6 dry red chillies (Indeed, it is going to be hot)
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
1 lemon-sized tamarind ball
Salt to taste.

Method:

Fry the bitter gourd pieces in a little oil until it turns dark brown in color. Grind the coconut, dry red chillies, coriander seeds, tamarind, and salt. Do not add water. Mix the fried bitter gourd pieces and finely chopped onions to the chutney and serve it with boiled rice pez. Pez is made by cooking red colored boiled rice in a big vessel with plenty of water. The boiled rice should be cooked on a slow heat until it becomes soft. It is served hot with salt and ghee.
