Grate the bottle gourd

Squeeze the water out from it . I wrapped them in some paper towels to take the water out of it completely.

In a bowl mix the grated bottle gourd with the flour and a pinch of salt and let it rest for 15 minutes. ( The salt will release water from the vegetable and it will keep it moist, do not add any water to it)

Now make tiny balls out of the mixture and keep it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes (minimum)

In a deep pan heat some oil and fry the balls . ( You have to make sure it doesn't get burnt , so fry in low heat)

You make want to poke them a little with a fork so that it gets cooked completely even from inside.

Keep the balls aside once it's fried . You can also eat them fried with some tangy dip as an appetizer :)

In a pan boil 2 cups of water and boil the potato

While it's boiling, grate the onions and the tomatoes together

Heat 2 tbs oil in a pan and throw in the cinnamon stick , bay leaf , chopped garlic and enjoy the aroma.

Now pour the grated onion and the tomatoes and saute for about 5 minutes till it's cook

Add the cumin powder , chilly powder, salt and garam masala and cook for another 5 minutes

Once the potatoes are boiled , mash them and mix them in 2 cup of water

Pour this in the pan along with the ½ cup milk and cook for another 5 minutes and switch off the heat. ( At this point, if you want to increase the quantity of the gravy, you can add more water and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes)

In a serving bowl place the fried balls and pour the gravy from the pan.

Garnish with the chopped coriander leaf and let it rest for 5 minutes

Serve it with hot Chapati or Naan
