Chayote or Chowchow Curry


Are you in a hurry to make a curry!!!!! then here is the best choice. It hardly takes time to make it and you can count on the ingredients since they are simple everyday ones. :)

Ingredients:

Chow Chow - 2
Pepper powder - 1 1/2 tsp

Coconut scrapings - 1 tbsp
Salt - for taste




Method:

Peel the skin and dice the chow chow into small pieces. Cook it and keep it aside. Now in a pan, take a spoon of oil and crackle mustard seeds. Add the cooked vegetable to it and fry for a min till the excess water evaporates. Now add the pepper powder and salt and saute well. Finally put in the coconut scrapings and saute for another 2 min.

Chow chow curry is ready to eat. :)


Serve it with roti or curd rice. :) This is a very simple yet very tasty curry. Happy cooking :)
