Ooh, intriguing. We usually have chayote just stirfried. This looks like a must-try to spice up our chayote.
I love morkootu but have never tried making it with chow chow before.. only the white pumpkin. Yours looks pretty, with the seasoning on top.
Rachel- anything is o.k. when you're with family.:D
