Sauteed Chayote with Garlic and Herbs

This sautéed chayote with garlic and herbs is a light and refreshing vegetarian side dish that brings a delicate crunch to your dinner table. Chayote, a member of the gourd family, has a mild flavour similar to a firm courgette or a crisp pear, making it an excellent canvas for aromatic ingredients. In this recipe, the squash is thinly sliced and quickly cooked to maintain its distinct texture and vibrant colour.

Infused with buttery garlic and finished with a generous handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley and spring onions, this simple dish provides a nutritious and low-calorie accompaniment to roasted meats or plant-based mains. It is a wonderful way to introduce a unique vegetable into your weekly rotation, offering a sophisticated yet easy-to-prepare alternative to standard green vegetables.
