- Heat oil in a kadhai over high heat until hot.
- Fry the bitter gourds over medium to high heat until golden brown, stirring at intervals.
- Add the potatoes, onions and salt. Stir, cook on high for 2-3 minutes, then lower the heat and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions caramelise and the potatoes are fully cooked.
- Switch off the heat, add all the powdered spices and stir well. Cover with a lid for 2-3 minutes.
- Remove the lid, stir again and serve.
