Pathrodo is normally a GSB dish prepared with colocassia leaves. But this dish has neither got connection with the leaves nor it matches its recipe. But still my great grand mom called it as “karatha pathrodo ” ..( dont know why !!!! ) …but trust me its as delicious as d pathrodo.. Its a must try recipe for all bitter gourd fans..
