Lakpura Dehydrated Bitter Gourd (Karawila) Slices
Bitter gourd or bitter melon which is famously known as karawila or karela is a much loved and consumed vegetable in the Asian subcontinent for its culinary and medicinal properties. The green vegetable that grows on vines maybe bitter but is a very wholesome food due to vitamins A and C as well as phosphorus and iron that it is said to contain. We offer you the option of purchasing dehydrated bitter gourd which has an extended shelf life.
Our dehydrated bitter gourd rings can be used in various curry preparations, the famous bitter gourd, onion and tomato sambol and sometimes even bitter gourd tea. You can rehydrate the rings by immersing them in water for about 30minutes before use. The convenience of this product is that it eliminates the hassle of peeling and cutting. We have used low temperature vacuum dehydration for the process while it’s carried out according to International standards and hygiene. No artificial ingredients, colours or flavours have been added. Bitter gourd is known for its anti inflammatory properties while it is known to manage diabetes and care for your hair and skin.
