How to make Bottle Gourd Tikkis

• Peel and grate the bottle gourd, mix in the other ingredients except for bread crumbs. Since water comes out while grating, you need not add water to form the tikkis.
• Ensure the dough is not watery, if required add more flour. Shape them into small discs. Roll them on bread crumbs.
• Heat a nonstick pan, and shallow fry them on both sides by sprinkling drops of cooking oil.
• Serve hot with ketchup.
