pro tips to make sukhi karela sabzi recipe: 1. Soaking the karela in salt water for 30 minutes will help to remove some of the bitterness. 2. Overcooking the karela will make it mushy and unpleasant to eat. 3. You can also add little coarsely crushed peanuts to the sabzi for the crunch. 4. Coconut Oil : Use coconut oil instead of processed seed oils like soyabean oil, canola, sunflower oil, corn oil and other omega-6 rich oils should be used in very low amounts.  Coconut oil is a medium chain triglyceride (MCT’s).  Unlike other fats, they go directly from the gut to the liver. From here, they are then used as a source of energy. As the calories in MCT’s are used straight away, they are less likely to be stored as fats in the body. MCT's have shown to improve your brain and memory function, they also give a boost to your energy levels and improve your endurance.  The MCT in Coconut oil reduces the LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) while increasing the count of HDL cholesterol, maintaining normal blood pressure and good for diabetics.
