tips for dry karela sabzi

1. Marinating the karela slices in salt is necessary to remove the bitterness of the karela.
   
2. Since the karela is marinated in salt, we have not added more salt later while cooking it, but if you would like a little more salt, feel free to add it.
   
3. While cooking the karela slices on the tava, ensure to toss occasionally so the slices do not stick to the tava and get burnt.
