The spicy and delicious condiment that peps up mealtimes! Simple to make Gun Powder Chutney uses flax seeds as one of the ingredients. How else do I feed the reluctant family flax seeds?

Green Papaya with Nigella Scent is a delicious tasting vegetable with unripe Papaya. It is difficult to guess that you are eating papaya unless you see your mom chopping it up. 😀
Green Papaya with Nigella
Unripe papaya as a meat tenderiser is great. It is used as an ingredient for salad in South Asian cuisine too but the use of Unripe Papaya in Indian cuisine was an eye-opener to me. Looks like I know what happens elsewhere more than my own backyard.
When it pours in Goa it pours and one such unseasonal rain my neighbour’s heavily loaded papaya tree finally surrendered and fell. Therefore, the next day she offered me 2 green papayas and looking at my blank expression told me to make a vegetable.
She gave a version that uses coconut now that I am reducing the use of coconut in our food preferred to make this version that I saw in Chef Vikas Khanna’s book, “My First Kitchen!” which I have borrowed from the Central Library, Panaji. Chef has used laung/cloves too but I did not as hubby who has a sea change in his diet did not want to add more pressure.
We eat a lot of Papaya but as a fruit or as a smoothie. I have made a salad in the past but lost the post when I was hacked. Hopefully, the salad will be the next post.

That sounds like a very flavorful and healthy dish with papaya. Nigella seeds must have added a lot of flavor.

Archana I don’t like preparing my sabjis in the same style day in day out. This is a new recipe for me and adding kalonji makes it all that more interesting. Looks very tempting.
ArchanaPotdar says
I think we are peas in a pod! Mayuri we seem to have similar likes and dislikes.
