Chayotes are excellent. do you think they can be grilled like this?


Probably - let me know if you give it a try!


In Sydney Australia we call them CHOKO, CHOKOES Funny When I was a kid growing up in 1960's we had them growing on the vine & didn't really know what to do with them - I was brought up on Polish Bohemian (Peasant Farm/Village) food. You couldn't give them away NOW I hardly see them at all CHOKOes are very bland & tend to take on the flavour of the spice they are cooked with YUM to this recipe Krystyna Down UNder
