Chibud ~A Fruit

Come monsoons and in Goa we get a lot of local vegetable and fruits.

 One of the most famous one is “Chibud”. Looks like a muskmelon when cut but is different.

Ingredients:

class=“ingredients”>
• Chibud
• Sugar
• Lime
• Pepper

 This is how I served it

Cut and scoop out the seeds, the skin.

Collect in an air tight container.

Add sugar as per taste.

A dash of lime.Coarsely ground fresh pepper.

 Mix. Almost immediately you have a lot of syrup and the chibud almost disintegrates and the levels go down. 

 And how my Kid served it.

Basically the  same way . She has scooped out the Chibud with the scooper added 2 oranges peeled ,separated and 2 apples (she tried scooping them but could not), sugar and pepper. Since she is my Official Zester she has added a lot of zest then passed the bowl to me as she did not like the taste!!

Kimchi

One of the oldest Indo-Chinese restaurants in Panaji, called Goinchin serves a salad with their food as an accompaniment. And it was awesome so delicious that we asked for a second helping of it.

That is when I asked the Captain what it is called and how it is made. I was told it is called Kimchee and its just cabbage that they have used with vinegar and red chilli powder.

Today I made it.
