Ridge Gourd Foogath (Gosalem)
Ridge Gourd Foogath is a simple and elegant Mangalorean/Goan side dish flavoured with mustard seeds, curry leaves and coconut. My mum made foogath with green cooking bananas, tendli (ivy gourd), cabbage, French beans, pumpkin, kuvalo (winter melon), drumsticks (vegetable), spinach, cauliflower, yam and many other vegetables. Serve as a side dish with your favourite fish curry or any meat curries. Equally delicious served with chapathi, roti or phulkas. Also makes a complete vegetarian meal, with dhal and rice.

Recipe for Goan Tambdi Bhaji Foogath mixed with Palak and Chana(Red & Green Spinach with Roasted Gram)
Tambdi Bhaji or Red Spinach is a popular Leafy Vegetable which is a Goan favourite. This bhaji(like we Goans call it) is one of my Mum’s favourite bhajis. I am not such a big fan of this veggie(but then I’m not a fan of most veggies☹) But, my trip to the Vegetable market this week, got me super attracted to purchase not only Tambdi Bhaji but so many other Greens because they were so Fresh, never seen vegetables more Fresh! But then Yes! As winter approaches, it’s the season of Greens and Leafy Veggies. The best time to enjoy Fresh Leafy vegetables and Greens is during the Winter season! Here’s one of the preps I made out of the 2 bundles of Red Spinach that I purchased. The simple Goan preparation doesn’t call for Roasted Gram, Turmeric powder & Chilly powder. I’ve just added it for extra texture and flavour.
