Ridge gourd (Sponge Gourd) is called as Beerakai in Telugu, Peerkangai in Tamil and Torai in Hindi. It's a ridged and dark green veggie with white pulp inside. It is one of my favourite vegetables. I like Peerkangai in Sambar with Moong Dal, as Porial and as chutney. At my home, my mom used to plant our own vegetables like Brinjal, Ridge Gourd, Snake Gourd, Broad Beans, Tomato, Green Chilly, Lemon, Drum
