First clean the karelas/bitter gourd. Rinse off with salt and turmeric to remove the bitterness. Let it rest for 20-25 minutes.
Now make a vertical slit on each karela. Scoop out and discard seeds and pulp to fill the potato masala.
Then prepare the potato masala. In a mixing bowl, smash the boiled potatoes. Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, chat masala, garam masala and salt. Mix everything to be incorporated well.
Now fill the karelas with potato masala filling tightly.
Heat oil in a Shallow frying pan, shallow fry stuffed karelas lightly for a minute, such that the stuffing doesn’t fall off. Then cover and cook on a low-medium heat till stuffed karelas are well cooked.
Once the karelas are nice and soft, switch off the heat and it is ready to be served.
