  1. Absolutely loved this recipe. I only had 2 large chayotes but I kept everything the same . . . . excellent, fast, delicious!!

  2. I absolutely love love this Sashi. WE use it so much in South Indian cooking and this looks and sounds so so delicious. In fact after you asked me, I was talking to mum and she said that she makes halwa out of it I’ve even eaten it.
    Love it my dear and those chopsticks.

    1. Oh wow – your mom makes halwa with chayote?! Now I would love to taste that! That must be so so good! Usually South Indian and Northern Sri Lankan cuisine have a lot in common, but chayote is new to my mom – and me – though I have been out of the country for three quarter of my life!
      BTW Thanks so much sweet friend!

  3. Shashi, I love that “game” that you played with your daughter, I can’t wait to try it with Sienna. I’ve never had chayote but I’ve definitely seen it on lots of cooking shows and at the market. Your preparation looks wonderful!

    1. Sonali – I cannot wait for you to try it with Sienna too – I used to play so many games with my gal to get her to eat her veggies – she was born a carb lover! There was this other game where I’d get her to try different colored foods – like 3 peas, 2 carrots, 1 tomato – math and veggies in one!
      BTW Thanks so much!

  4. At first I thought this was a potato curry! Then I saw the chayotes. I think we call those chokos. We used to have them growing on a fence when I was a teenager. We never really knew what to do with them. They’re very bland and I think putting them in a curry is a great idea xx

    1. “Chokos” – gosh I am so intrigued! I need to do some more research on chayotes – they are indeed bland – but are good at absorbing whatever they are spiced up with! Thanks Charlie xx
