Chayote with Red Lentils#mycookbook
I was craving for Bangladeshi Lau (gourd) but couldn’t get it where I live. Lau Daal is my favourite vegetable dish. I was looking at this vegetable & was wondering if I can use chayote to get a similar taste of Lau (gourd). I didn’t even know what was it called till now🤦♀️
So I cooked it as the same way I cook Lau Daal.
It was 💯& I am fully satisfied. 😁
