Chow Chow (Chayote) fry


By Aaha Oho (Visit website)



I was looking for a quick and simple dish with chayote and came across Nithu's kitchen (http://www.nithubala.com/ ) and got this recipe. She has already done some changes to the original recipe from Geetha Achal's blog (http://geethaachalrecipe.blogspot.com/). Here goes the recipe with my alterations, 


Ingredients:


1 medium Chow Chow
2 Green Chilli (chopped)
4-5 Curry leaves
1/4tsp Turmeric powder
1tsp Cumin seeds
1/2tsp Mustard seeds
1/2tsp Urad dal
1 pinch Asafoetida
1/2tsp Black pepper powder
2tsp Oil
Salt
How to:
Wash, peel the skin, discard the seed and dice the chayote into bite-size pieces.


Heat oil in a skillet, add mustard seeds, when it splutters, add urad dal, cumin seeds and asafoetida.


Then add green chillies, followed by turmeric powder and the diced chayote.


Add salt and saute until it starts browning slightly.
Now add curry leaves and continue sautéing until tender and crispy.


Switch off, sprinkle black pepper powder, mix well and let sit for a min.


Serve hot with sambar rice.
