Turai is nothing but the ridge gourd. The skin is pretty hard but the inside flesh is very soft and spongy. It is very crucial to taste the ridge gourd before cooking.
As many a times there is a very bitter turai and the whole taste of the curry will be spoiled. So most of the time, I simply cut the top part of the ridge gourd, then taste a little bit of the fleshy part inside. If it tastes good then I start peeling the skin and cut into pieces.
So be extra careful while adding the turai to the curry. As one bad turai will spoil the whole curry.
The turai gosht recipe is a very versatile dish. It tastes awesome with both rice and roti. It is totally your preference how you would like to relish it.
You can leave the curry little thin if you are serving it with roti or simply dry up all the water if you are serving with rice.
Once the mutton is half cooked do not add any extra water to cook it further. The ridge gourd by itself leaves a lot of water and adding more water will only make it soggy.
Once the mutton is cooked fully, you can either cook till the water is fully absorbed or leave some gravy in it.
