Pumpkin Skin Fry (Rongalaur Bakoli Bhaja )

After peeling off the pumpkin skin, many people discard it, not realizing that it can be a good cooking ingredient. So the next time you get pumpkin home, just remember to keep the peeled skin intact so that you can dish out a snack that is mouth-watering and yes, healthy. Remember, maximum nutrients are contained in the skin of a fruit or vegetable.

Here’s how:

Ingredients:

• Peeled pumpkin skin washed well
• Two tablespoon mustard oil
• Two to three medium sized onions
