Bottle Gourd Peel Chutney

Bottle Gourd Peel Chutney Recipe

November 21, 2017 By Priya Shiva 10 Comments

Print Recipe

We usually end up throwing peels of vegetables and fruits but they are loaded with vitamins and minerals. I use these peels to make chutney or vegetable stock for soups. I decided to make bottle gourd kofta curry for lunch today and decided to use the peels for making chutney. I added a little coriander and coconut to make this Bottle Gourd Peel Chutney and no one in my family could find a change in taste too!

I served this Bottle Gourd Peel Chutney with Coconut Sevai for breakfast today. So, try out this healthy chutney recipe and enjoy a healthier breakfast.

    Amazing pic and recipes. I used to use peels for composting. I’m actually worried about the pesticides and chemicals in on the peels of vegetables. 🙁

      Thank you Priyanka <3 you are right. The amount of pesticides is more in peels. That's why it is important to clean it nicely and stir-fry. the amount of vitamins and minerals is also the highest in peels 🙂

    Genius, Priya! A great example to use kitchen scraps that would otherwise go to waste, unless composted or something.
