Peel the bottle gourd and chop it into small cubes.
Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped bottle gourd, green chilies, and ginger, and sauté for 5-6 minutes until the bottle gourd softens.
Add cumin seeds to the pan and cook for another minute. Allow the mixture to cool completely.
In a blender, combine the sautéed bottle gourd mixture, grated coconut, salt, and water. Blend into a smooth paste. Adjust the consistency by adding more water if necessary.
Heat the remaining oil in a small tempering pan. Add mustard seeds and let them pop, then add curry leaves and a pinch of asafoetida. Sauté for 30 seconds.
Pour the tempering over the chutney and mix well.
Serve the Keto Sorakkai Chutney immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
