Crisp, sun-dried Kerala bitter gourd condiment — naturally preserved, flavour-rich and perfect with kanji, meals and everyday porridge dishes.
Pavakka, also known as bitter gourd or karela, has always been an important ingredient in Kerala cuisine. Sundried Pavakka Kondattam is one of the oldest and most loved ways of preparing it. Instead of deep frying or using artificial preservatives, the bitter gourd slices are cleaned, salted lightly and then sun-dried naturally. This slow dehydration gives them a deep flavour, long shelf life and the classic crunch that makes them a favourite side dish for rice and porridge.
Worth2Deal brings you authentic Kerala Special Sundried Pavakka Kondattam made using fresh bitter gourd sourced from local farms. The slices are cut evenly, cleaned thoroughly and sun-dried under hygienic conditions. Since the drying method is traditional, it preserves the natural taste and nutrients without adding chemicals or artificial flavours.
This kondattam is simple to prepare at home. Just heat a little coconut oil, fry the sun-dried pieces until crisp and enjoy them with rice, kanji porridge or Kerala meals. The flavour is intense, slightly bitter and beautifully balanced with the crisp texture. It’s a comforting dish that many households in Kerala prepare regularly.
Because it is sundried, the product stays fresh for months when stored in a dry, airtight container. No refrigeration is required. It’s a convenient pantry item that you can use whenever you want a quick side dish.
Pavakka is known for its natural health benefits. It is rich in fibre, vitamins and antioxidants. Traditional Kerala food culture often uses bitter gourd to support digestion and balance meals. Sun-drying helps retain much of the vegetable’s natural goodness.
Worth2Deal ensures clean preparation in a controlled environment. There is minimal human contact as slicing, sorting and drying stages are monitored carefully. Each batch is checked for quality, dryness and texture before packing.
If you enjoy Kerala home-style flavours, this Pavakka Kondattam is a simple, traditional and authentic product you can trust. It pairs well with rice, porridge, curd rice, kanji, or any everyday Kerala meal.
