Sorakaya Custard ( bottle gourd custard )
Sorakaya Custard Bottle Gourd Custard
One of my favourites I always make it when ever I feel like eating some thing sweet. Very nutritious sweet. You can use jaggery instead of sugar for a more healthier dessert. Very cooling during the summers.

- 2 tbsp Ghee
- 2 tbsp Maida or Cornflour
