About Karela salan
Karela Salan is a traditional South Asian dish, primarily originating from Pakistani and Indian cuisines. It features bitter gourd (karela) as the main ingredient, cooked in a rich, spiced curry base made with onions, tomatoes, yogurt, and a blend of aromatic spices including cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili powder. Often served with rice or flatbreads, this dish is cherished for its unique balance of flavors—combining the bitterness of the gourd with the tanginess of the curry. Bitter gourd is a powerhouse of nutrients, rich in vitamins C and A, fiber, and antioxidants. It is reputed for its benefits in managing blood sugar levels and promoting digestive health. However, Karela Salan can be high in calories and fats if excessive oil is used during preparation. Moderation in oil and spice levels can make it a healthy and flavorful addition to a balanced diet.
