Instructions

1. Pour the milk into a wide, heavy-bottomed pan or kadai and bring to a boil, then simmer on low until it reduces and thickens slightly.
2. Rinse the bottle gourd, peel it, and check that it is not bitter or sour. Grate it finely, remove the seeds and the centre portion.
3. Heat 2½ tbsp ghee in a heavy kadai, add the grated gourd and fry, stirring often, for about 7 to 10 minutes until all the moisture has dried up.
4. Whisk the thickened milk well to break up the cream, then pour it into the hot gourd.
5. Cook on medium to low, stirring often, until the mixture thickens and the moisture evaporates.
6. Add the sugar and keep cooking, stirring, until the mixture turns gooey again and then becomes thick.
7. Sprinkle in the cardamom powder, pour in 1 tsp ghee, mix and cook for a few minutes.
8. Garnish with the sliced almonds, cashews and pistachios. Serve warm or chilled.
