Ingredients
1 kg karela/bitter gourd
1 cup/as needed of mango pickle masala
5-6 tbsp mustard oil/any veg oil

in case you do not have pickle masala prepare it with the following ingredients
2 tsp methi dana/fenugreek seeds, coarsely ground
2 tsp rai/mustard seeds
2 tsp saunf/fennel seeds
1 tsp kalonji/nigella seeds
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp red chilli powder
2 tsp salt
4 tsp anardana/pomegranate seeds powder or amchur/mango powder
2 tsp coriander powder

Method
1. peel the karele then wash & wipe dry. cut off the ends & make a long slit on one side
2. if you are using spices to prepare the achar masala first grind the methi dana, rai & fennel seeds coarsely. add the powdered spices & mix well. now add as much mustard oil as needed to make a paste of these ingredients
3. stuff about a tsp of the pickle masala in each karela and keep aside
4. add oil to pan and let it heat up on medium heat
5. reduce heat to low & add as many karelas as can fit comfortably in the pan
6. keep rotating the karelas as the sides get done till they are well cooked all over. you may increase & reduce heat as required
7. serve as a side dish or have with roti or parathas

note:
1. if you do not wish to fry all the karela at one time you can store them in an air tight box in the fridge and fry the rest the next day
2. these karelas once fried will keep good in the fridge for upto a week. you can reheat them when you wish to have them
