Louki ka Kofta Louki ka Kofta  is a North Indian gravy based Curry made with Bottlle Gourd.  In India a range of gourds are available such as Bottle Gourd, Ridge Gourd, Ash Gourd, Bitter Gourd, Snake Gourd besides a variety of cucumbers and these are available through-out the year.  Today I am presenting a curry called Louki ka Kofta,  made with Bottle Gourd. This wonderful gourd is a  healthy vegetable,  looks like a Bottle or even like a mace, when it grows to a huge size in the farm. Known as Calabash ( Lagenaria siceraria), i t is considered as a endothermic or  cool vegetable and is very easily digestible too. Louki ka Kofta is a popular curry in Northern Parts of India. It goes  very well with a wide variety of Indian Breads (Rotis). Long time back i  learnt this curry from one of my  friends from Delhi. I reminisce fondly those days....Just within a week after my marriage I had to move from South India to Northern region...
