Equipment

  • 1/2 Medium Onion Chopped roughly
  • 2 Garlic Cloves Chopped roughly

Ingredients
  

  • 3 to 4 Packets Brède Giraumon (pumpkin shoots) throughly cleaned and washed
  • 1/2 Medium Onion Chopped roughly
  • 2 cloves Garlic Chopped roughly
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 Green chilli (Optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan or wok on a medium flame.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Let them cook for a few minutes until the onions become translucent.
  • Add the Brède Giraumon to the pan, add salt (to taste) and stir well. Cover with a lid and let it cook for about 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. We’ll be cooking à l'étouffée. (a gentle stewing method).
  • The Brède will turn a darkgreen colour, indicating that it’s almost done. You'll notice some liquid in the pan. Now, continue cooking for another 10 minutes, uncovered, until most of the water evaporates. That's when you know it's ready.
