Bottle Gourd and moong dal Vadi's vegetable is made in North India and is a favorite vegetable, mostly in Lucknow and Kanpur, it is made more during the rainy days. It is mostly made with Urad Dal Vadi but the Moong Dal is also very good with Wadi, it is a very simple and easy-to-use vegetable. It also does not require many ingredients. I will make it with the moong dal wad made at home, if you wish, you can also make it from the market with the ladhi wadi, the time when the gourd is very soft and fresh, then this vegetable becomes very good, gourd sweetness makes its taste doubles.
