Chayote - 0.9-1kg

Also known as Choko

Why you’ll love it

• Crisp-tender texture with a mild, slightly sweet flavor that takes on sauces beautifully.
• Versatile across stir-fries, soups, braises, and fresh slaws.
• Cooks fast and stays pleasantly crunchy when not overcooked.
• Great everyday veg that pairs well with garlic, soy, ginger, and sesame.

How to enjoy

1. Garlic chayote stir‑fry
   Julienne and toss in a hot wok with smashed peeled garlic, a splash of light soy, and a drizzle of sesame oil. Stir‑fry 2–4 minutes until crisp‑tender; add slivers of long green chili for gentle heat.
2. Prawn & enoki chayote soup Broth‑based
   Simmer sliced chayote in clear stock like chicken broth, then add peeled king prawns, a knob of ginger, and tufted enoki mushrooms. Cook just until prawns turn pink for a clean, comforting bowl.
3. Crunchy chayote slaw with sesame & vinegar
   Shave or thinly slice chayote and toss with white rice vinegar, a few drops of sesame oil, sea salt, and chopped coriander. Chill briefly for extra crunch.
4. Tofu & shiitake braise, spooned over vermicelli
   Simmer wedges of chayote with cubes of classic tofu, sliced shiitake, and a glaze of oyster sauce. Serve over soaked rice vermicelli for a cozy one‑bowl meal.

Prep Tips

• Skin is edible; peel lightly if the surface is tough. Rinse well after peeling—the sap can feel sticky on hands.
• Halve and remove the inner seed only if large or firm; small seeds are tender.
• For stir‑fries, cut into matchsticks or thin slices so it cooks in 2–4 minutes and stays crisp.
• For salads, salt lightly for 5–10 minutes, then rinse and pat dry to enhance crunch and seasoning.
