mom keeps making lauki sabzi for me almost daily saying its light and good. i honestly cant stand the taste but want to know if it actually helps in pregnancy before i complain more.
Lauki haters, this is your sign, it's actually pregnancy gold haha. Light, fills you up, and you can make sabzi, soup, even kofta. Just no bitter ones na.
Haan beta lauki is very good, easy to digest and keeps you light. In our time we gave lauki ki sabzi and juice. Bas fresh wali lo, kabhi kabhi karwi nikalti hai toh mat khana.
Lauki was a staple for me, especially with GD because it's light and filling. I avoided the sugary lauki halwa though. Plain sabzi or soup is a safe bet.
We eat lauki a lot at home, it's gentle on the tummy and my mother always made lauki sabzi and soup for me. Just cook it well and avoid if it tastes bitter, otherwise enjoy.
Yes lauki is totally fine and actually quite light and good for digestion. Just make sure it's fresh and tastes normal, if a piece tastes very bitter throw the whole thing, bitter lauki can upset the stomach.
