Chayote (合掌瓜, also known as 佛手瓜) is a very versatile vegetable. You can add it to soups or eat it raw, but my favorite method of preparation is stir frying. In this video, we'll see how Mama Lin grows chayote in her backyard. Then, she'll show us how to stir fry chayote.

You can find dried shrimp in Asian supermarkets.
