Apple Gourd or Tinday Fry is a simple fry and is way too flavourful and aromatic. It is a squash like cucurbit grown mainly for it's immature Fruit. Also known as Round Gourd or Indian Baby Pumpkin.
An easy one pot dish for any day by me made in a pan that too in a jiffy. This Vegetarian dish can be relished with both Rice and Rotis. Made with easily available pantry staples, this is one of the most simplest dish too. Almost every Week, I do make it a point to go with one for mealtimes especially on a Weekend or even for the Lunchbox as long as it's available.
