Heat oil, and put in some of the bitter gourd after squeezing thoroughly. (2-3 lots can be made ) Fry till brown, add masala and a little masala water. Cover and cook for a while. Then open the lid and keep on a low flame till done. As salt is added to bitter gourd initially, there may not be any need to add any more salt.
