Seeme badanekai (also called as chow-chow, chayote squash etc.) is a bland veggie, which I do not use much at home. But last week when I did not find many fresh vegetables in store, thought of trying something out with this. So here comes a recipe which is a mishmash of couple of other dry subzis that I usually make
Ingredients:
Seeme badanekai - 2
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Chili powder - 1/4 tsp
Dhal powder (777 brand) - 1 tbsp
Besan - 2 tbsp
Salt - to taste
Oil - 2 tbsp
Seasoning:
Mustard seeds
Cumin seeds
Urad dal
Curry leaves
Method:
- Heat oil in a nonstick pan and add seasoning. When it splutters, add curry leaves
- Add diced vegetable and stir fry for couple of minutes
- Then add turmeric and chili powders along with salt. Let it fry for few more minutes. No need to add any water since the vegetable itself is quite succulent
- When it looks half cooked, add the dhal powder and besan. Keep stirring in between to prevent sticking. Let it cook well this way
- Serve hot with chapathi or rice as a side dish
