    I do the other way in ridge gourd (only) chutney, like remove the skin as much as possible, but keep the spongy part with the seeds?

    What difference does it make - if its mine or your way? any idea?

    I dont know what difference, however, I've been told that the skin is full of nutrients; so I try to keep as much skin as possible.

    Dear @kkrish,

    Hope you don't mind me butting in!
    As you said, the nutritional aspect is the main thing. Apart from that, ridge gourd skin is a little hard. What I have noticed is that when it is used, it adds a bite and a slightly grainy texture to the curry or the chutney which many people (incl. me) enjoy. Perhaps this texture and the experience makes all the difference.

    Since I don't use the Instant Pot, I miss contributing here.:worried: But you guys are showcasing so many recipes and that's great!:thumbup:
