Today I prepared Rice, moong dal and prawn bottle gourd gravy for lunch. This gravy also goes well with chapati. Sometimes we make this gravy only with prawns or sometimes I add bottle gourd to it if it is there at home. The combination of prawn and bottle gourd goes well together. You can try this gravy for a change.
