Watch how to make it here

Have you tried chayote? This squash hails from Central America and is a delicious alternative to zucchini or butternut squash. This recipe will show you how easy it is to prepare chayote.

A few notes:

1. Chayote can be found at most grocery stores especially Asian grocery stores.
2. Once peeled, chayote releases a white liquid called sap which might dry out your hands and difficult to grip. It can easily be washed off or you can wear gloves when preparing this dish.
3. Chayote is naturally sweet which makes it all the more enjoyable.
4. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Since it has high water content, the texture might not be as enjoyable after 2 days. Best served immediately.
