Heat oil in a kadai, add the mustard seeds,curry leaves n dry red chillies n let them crack..add the ridge gourd pieces n stir them for while..add enough salt to the veggies, now they will leave water n close the kadai, cook in medium high flame until they get well cooked..before putting off the stove, add the grounded peanuts to the cooked ridgegourd curry n toss gently until they get well mixed..
