Chow Chow (Chayote Squash / Seema Kathirikka)

Meet the ultimate “cool” vegetable! Our Premium Chow Chow (also known as Chayote Squash or Bangalore Kathirikka) is a refreshing, pear-shaped gourd that is a favorite for its mild flavor and satisfying crunch. Sourced from the cool climates of the Western Ghats, these squashes have a smooth, pale green skin and a crisp, watery interior.
Because it is so neutral, Chow Chow is incredibly versatile. It stays firm when lightly sautéed but becomes tender and succulent in gravies, making it a reliable staple for everyday healthy cooking.
