In the dish I have shown, I have added water and red chili powder in addition to the ingredients I have listed below. So the picture is not indicative of the actual recipe. I prefer all my curries to be spicy and hot. So most of my pictures would be red in colour. But I have modified the ingredients so that they are not too spicy.
Preparation time: 45 min.
Working time: 20 min.
Ingredients:
Bottle gourd: 1 medium (peeled and cut into small cubes)
Onion: 1 medium ( finely chop)
Green chilies: 3-4
Milk: 1/3 cup
Cilantro for garnishing
Salt to taste

Seasoning:
Turmeric: 1/4 tsp
Ginger-garlic paste: 1/2 tsp
Cumin seeds: 1/2 tsp
Mustard seeds: 1/2 tsp
Coriander powder: 1 tsp
Curry leaves: 4-5
Method:
Heat oil in a pan/ pressure cooker.
Add Mustard, cumin, curry leaves i the same order.
After 1 min, add onions and green chilies.
When onions turn golden brown, add ginger-garlic paste. Cook until the raw smell is gone.

If it is pressure cooker, cook until 2 whistles.
When the pressure is gone, open the lid.
