Ingredients:
2 Long Ridge Gourds – The skin should not be shrunk too much between the ridges.
2 Green Chillis slit three forth vertically
Asafoetida
Salt
Tamarind Concentrate – very little, may be less than ¼ of a small spoon
Curry Leaves – 1 stalk
Method:
Peel off the Ridge Gourd Skin and Cut both the ends. Taste for Bitterness. Do not use Bitter Ridge Gourds. Dice the Ridge Gourd.
Heat the Diced Gourd along with the Green Chillis in low Heat. Do not add water. The Gourd itself will let out some Water. Stir occasionally and Cook for a while until all the water is evaporated. Let it cool down.
Take out only one Green Chilli and Grind the Cooked Gourd (with one green chilli) along with Asafoetida, Salt, Tamarind Concentrate and Curry leaves. Grind to a smooth Paste. Season if you want to. Serve this Chutney with Steaming Rice.

Mythreyee, I have never tried Red Beans chutney that is on my to try list. Ridge gourd chutney is one of my favorites follow the exact same method you do but I also a little bit of urad dal and it tastes great with idlis
with any chutney grind curry leaves also with that will give nice aroma and taste and good for health too.

Thank you Dilip, IndosunGod, Srk, Tanuja, Vini, Asha, Jaya, Pooja, Lakshmi, Swapna for your sweet words. My friend taught me this recipe. As Srk said, I add curry leaves to most of the chutneys. Its good for health.
Also, this is one of the Recipes that doesn't need oil, unless you want to season it.
Dilip: thanks.
Indosungod: Try it and let me know. Yes, with Urud Dal, the consistency is not very smooth and some pepople like it that way. I shall try this way next time I do this chutney
Srk: Yes, adding curryleaves while grinding enhances taste as well as good for health too.
Tanuja: Thumba Thanks. Did you see my Pomegranete Mint Chutney.
