Steps

1

Select your pumpkin and managu leaves.For the pumpkin leaves,Remove the thread like strings from the stalk.From the tip of the stalk,start pulling down and the thread will come out.I do this to remove the chewyness from the vegetable.

Cut them into small pieces

Clean the two very well,to remove all the sand,soil etc.

I steam mine for at least 3-5 minutes.

Cut your onions,put in a sufuria and add oil.Brown your onions and add salt.
