Usually Ridgegourd curry is prepared with milk.I substituted it with Zucchini because they all belong to same family!!! I guess!!! ;) Zucchini is a very low in fat and high in dietary fibre and it contains almost 95%percent of water. Since its water content is high it is obviously a cooling agent to our bodies. It is known to be a good natural medicine for curing urinary disorders and also a comforting food for those who suffer from constipation frequently. People who want to shed weight can include a big portion of this vegetable in their daily diet to keep the stomach filling with fewer calories. Also it is rich in iron and vitamin c and b complex. Today am showing you a simple curry using this wonderful vegetable by giving a little twist with fresh creamy milk. It is very easy to prepare and can be served with rice and any kinds of breads or chapathi or roti.
