Kids would love to eat while preparing bitter gourd this way as they tend to avoid this wonder veggie all because of its bitterness. I prepare this chips not very often but may be when I get bored with the regular side dish and crave for something fried. It can also be stored in an air tight container for 2 to 3 days.
