Cut karela into slices and put them in a strainer(colander)and add some salt leave aside for 20 min than wash with cold water and let the water drain (this method is used to lessen the bitterness)
In a pan add oil and karela and let it turn slightly brown (around 10-15 min )some ppl boil them instead of frying but I experienced the bitterness is not much removed this way
