Hi, It has been long since I have posted, for that there could be two reasons either I am not cooking
or haven’t tried any thing new..
. I guess a bit of both. Well last week I made Butter Nut. Now many of my readers wouldn’t have a clue of what butter nut is as to my knowledge its not found in the UAE, India or Pakistan. I am not sure of the rest of the world but its surely available in South Africa.
Butter Nut is from the family of pumpkins, it has a sweet smell like of a melon. There are various ways of preparing a dish with Butte Nut, but this is how I prepared my first Butter Nut dish.
Ingredients:
1 medium Butternut
100ml Cooking Oil
1 Medium Onion
Whole Zeera and
Salt
Preparations:
Wash Clean and cut cubes of Butter Nut, then in a heated pan add oil cook onions till slight brown add butter nut and cook on low heat for 20mins or so.. Then add Zeera for flavor and cook for another 5-10mins.. Don’t shuffle the butter nut a lot as it will mesh.
Server with home made Rotis or Toasted Bread. Hmmmmm
For those who don’t know what a butter nut looks like here it is for you

And this is how it looks after its cooked.
