    Parval.... i haven't been able to find them here, Some times i see Tinde but not Parval, not even in Indian store :(

    Btw, haven't been able to be very regular on Blogs due to work pressure lately, but hoping it to change now !

    I have spent 3 years in Calcutta and have come across this vegetable in the markets there. But never knew how to prepare . Next time I find this vegetable I will try this out.
