‘PotolerDorma’ is a traditional dish. To make stuffed parwals, which are really ‘melt in the mouth’, use Kolkata parwals, however if it is not easily available use the local variety
PointedGourd/Parwal is called 'Potol' in Bengali and 'Dolma/Dorma' means a stuffed vegetable. But in this vegetarian and low calorie version of the Potoler Dolma, the potol/parwal is stuffed with Indian Cottage Cheese and dry fruits
Keema/Ground meat stuffingScraping, scooping and stuffing the pointedgourdsPreparing the gravy. Half boil the pointedgourds,cool and then scoop the seeds from inside
I made one of my Maa’s special dish PATOL ER DORMA WITH PRAWNS OR PRAWNSTUFFEDPOINTED GROUND. This dish is very authentic Bengali dish I have one more PATOL ER DORMA recipe in my blog but that one is a veg recipe so from long time I wanted to cook a non-veg version of PATOL ER DORMA
Pointed. 1 tsp Cumin / Jeera powder. the skin of the Potol (pointed gourd) and slit lengthwise 3~4 times. 50 mixture of mustard and sunflower oil) in a kadai/. 1 tsp Cumin / Jeera powder
Wash the pointedgourds and scrap the skin roughly using peeler. Pointed Gourd is also called as Parwal in Hindi and Potol in Bengali and colloquially it is often called as Green Potato in India
Parwal (aka Potol or Pointed Gourd) is a vegetable that results is a very crispy, crunchy stir-fry that I love very much as a side-dish to Curd Rice, Sambar Rice or Bisi Bele Bhath
Poppy Seeds / Posto is considered to be one of the most essential spices in a Bengali Kitchen. Anyway, today I am going to share a simple poppy seed recipe where potato and pointed gourd are cooked in the gravy of poppy seed paste
Mustard/vegetable Oil. Bengalis get emotional, sentimental and everything when it comes to Sea-fish, specially all bengalis have a very soft corner for Prawns
I choose a traditional bengali dish named Doi Potol (Pointed Gourd in Yogurt/Curd Gravy). Now heat ghee and refined oil together in a wok and fry the potols/parwals till it becomes golden brown in color
Most of them are seedless and have a soft texture which gets tender quickly and if they are overripe then the seeds are taken and stuffed with minced meat or seafood or boiled potatoes to make delicious " Dorma "
