Kharbooj ki sabzi -Sweet &sour Rock melon cooked with Indian spices

Kharbooj Ki Sabzi- Sweet melon comes in different shapes and colors but they all have two things in common-a soft and juicy pulp and superb taste,so its hard to say no to melons but what will you do if the melon you brought turned out to be a raw and tasteless melon…this happens with me last week

So I decided to make a curry from it, which turn out so delicious and flavorful. so try this kharbuj ki sabzi when your melon disappoints you.

    Hello Aunty Anjana, I made this melon curry today! As I am fairly new to cooking Indian dishes, I am really grateful for your easy yet delicious recipe.

    I have one question though – I notice the recipe shared in your video is slightly different from the written recipe (which I followed today). There are more spices in the video, with bigger quantity. May I know will there be a huge difference in taste between the two recipes? Thank you.

      Thank you Po for your kind words. I cook for my family of six, which is why the quantities in the video seem larger. But the ingredients should be the same. Was there any specific ingredient you felt was different from the recipe. Regards, Anjana

    My melon turned out to be not sweat today and my husband hates to eat such melons and I can’t finish alone. So I remembered days when my grand mother used to make Kharbooje ki sabji. So I was looking for a simple recipe. Thanks to your blog where I found exactly what I was looking for, will try it out.
    Thanks Again.
