It's the Chayote season.......with a bountiful harvest, why not try new recipes with it?

Note:
1. Chayote has a sugary taste, the reason I used white pepper to neutralise it.

2. Recipe for Mbuzi Ulaya already shared earlier on.

Steps

  1. 1

    Here are the matured Chayote (sprouting already). Peel, remove the seed and cut them into small cubes (smaller than the potatoes). Peel your potatoes too and slice them into slightly bigger size cubes than the Chayote. I peeled them because they had spiky skin and removed the seed coz it was hard, but you can with cook with the skin and the seed.

  2. 2

    Since they take longer to cook than the potatoes, in a Sufuria, have the Chayote down and the potatoes on top. Add very little water. Put the Sufuria on medium heat and boil them for ten minutes without salt. Yellow are the potatoes, off white are the Chayote.

  3. 3

    In a different Sufuria, heat your oil, add in the garlic-ginger paste and cook for 2 minutes, add the onions and cook for 2 minutes (till soft not brown) then add your tomatoes and cook them till soft too. Add tomato paste. Mix for 2minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the white pepper and stir to mix for 3minutes. Add the potato-chayote, mix Royco in very little water and add mixing well and carefully to avoid "breaking" the potatoes. Royco is salty, taste before you add salt. Add the dhania, cook for a minute, cover and remove from fire.

  5. 5

    The food is ready to be served. Enjoy it with a stew of your choice (chicken stew, fish stew meat stew), or nyama choma, rice or as a meal by itself. I served with Mbuzi Ulaya fry.😘😘........please, ignore the plate😋😋😋

I love healthy, clean, good, well cooked and of course.... tasty food! So for that reason, I must find my way to the kitchen. I love it most when someone enjoys the food I made, this gives me the pleasure to try out some new recipe the next time I find myself in the kitchen.
