I love bright and vibrant colors on my plate! This is mashed pumpkin leaves with green chillies and cilantro incorporated. It is generally taken with rice as a starter dish. I've had it for breakfast this morning. The taste immediately takes me to a bright winter morning probably for the added cilantro as its a winter herb. What a beautiful celebration for the coming season! Good morning good people! β˜€οΈ #foodstr

Good morning athoi πŸ’š looks like an easy receipt! Will save it, never tried pumpkin leafs! πŸƒ what sort of pumpkins do you have? πŸŽƒ

Hi franny! I'm so glad you liked them. Its really easy and you can make it with gourd/pumpkin leaf. Let me share the detailed recipe here: Take the leaves, particularly younger and greener ones. Get rid of the stems and boil them in the water. Then squeeze all the water out of the boiled leaves so that it doesn’t become soggy. After that add cilantro, chillies, onions salt and oil of your choice and mash them altogether! And that's it! The final result should look like a dip. Hope you give it a try! #recipe #foodstr

I'm also leaving pics of gourd and pumpkin so you understand the kind of leaf we use.

Thank you so much for the detailed version of your receipt! Amazing how much more food you can create from nature than most expect (I’d say) πŸ’š

Totally! For example, when we make something with vegetables (not all of them), we sometimes don't throw away the peel. We either stir fry them of mash them depending on the veg. And that's one more dish, lot more nutrition just from it alone! There are so many kinds and varieties of mashed veg its amazing! The more creative and conscious your are, the more you can make out of nature. Mother Nature is so very much giving. 🀍

Good morning ✌️🧑

Looks really good πŸ‘Œ

Thank you so much Jay! I'm glad you liked it. Have a lovely day! πŸ’œ

You too! I hope your day is going well so far πŸ€™

It was untill I decided to be stupid and willingly consumed prawn. I'm allergic to prawn. 😭 I had a very little amount so I hope it doesn’t give me much trouble and that I'm able to study during the reactions too πŸ˜­πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ™πŸ½

Oh no! That sounds like something I would do though tbh. I'm lactose intolerant, but at the beginning I wouldn't really believe it. So I'd drink milk without lactase pills too see what would happen and then find out, one again, that I feel terrible afterwards πŸ˜‚

Anyway, I hope you feel better and remember next time that you're allergic πŸ«‚

Oh god aren’t we the rebels πŸ€£πŸ’œπŸ’œ
