• 250 g potol (pointed gourd)

👩🍳 How to Make Doi Potol

Step 1: Prepare the Potol
Peel the potol lightly, trim the ends and rub with turmeric and salt.

Step 2: Fry Until Golden
Heat Param Dairy Ghee in a pan. Fry the potol until lightly golden. Remove and keep aside.

Step 3: Prepare the Masala
In the same pan, add bay leaf and cumin seeds. Add ginger paste and onion, if using. Sauté until fragrant. Add turmeric, cumin, coriander and chilli powder with a little water.

Step 4: Add Param Dairy Dahi
Whisk the dahi until smooth. Lower the heat and add it gradually, stirring continuously to prevent curdling.

Step 5: Cook to Perfection
Add the fried potol, salt, sugar and a little water. Cover and cook for 8–10 minutes, until the potol is tender and the gravy thickens.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy!
Finish with a little Param Dairy Ghee for a rich aroma. Serve hot with steamed rice or luchi.
