Makes a great snack for kids as I saw that Konda didn't even ask what it was but eat few. Of course, the frying part can be avoided if you want to microwave it or do it in an appam pan.

Method :

Wash, Peel and grate the Bottle Gourd. Take the grated bottle gourd in a bowl and mix all the ingredients listed under for the dough. Mix well without adding water. Since bottle gourd has some water you will be able to get a stiff dough, if required add very little water. It really has to be stiff.
Then using a rolling pin, roll it as you do with your regular chapati. Over the top, cover it with finely chopped onions. Once done, roll inward to cover the entire layer. Finally you will get a rolled dough. Cut it to 2" circles.
Heat a pan with oil. Make a thin batter of maida for dipping. Then dip each piece in the Maida batter, the batter is to be really thin. Fry these in batches and drain them to a kitchen towel.
Meanwhile, heat another pan with 1 tsp oil, sauté curry leaves, finely chopped green chilies, chopped onions, then finally the tomatoes. Add salt and let the tomatoes get soft. Then toss the fried bottle gourd pieces and let it get covered well. Garnish with coriander leaves.
