The Saute of Papaya Flowers

Hi Vegan buddies... Do you know about all part of Papaya could be useful, especially the fruit, leaf, and the flowers. I know you would say that Papaya leaves and flowers are bitter, but trust me, It can not be bitter if you know the hack. This stir-fried papaya flower reminds me of my mother's cooking when I was at school. I didn't like it before because it tasted bitter. However, now I like any vegetables, including papaya flowers. I suddenly wanted to cook it myself because there were no stalls that prepared this stir-fried papaya flower. If prepared properly, stir-fried papaya leaves are very delicious, I'm sure you will like it. ----- **Ingredients** ----- ![IMG_0005.JPEG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/viviehardika/EowH9XYZhoa7pmoAKZGX6GY9EhC9a6rXx2CGp1FN4xYFdJB65QVHBeqpG8TSMRAwpUh.JPEG) ----- 1/2 kg papaya flowers Leunca (according your taste) 3-4 Chilies 1/2 clove of onion 3 cloves of red onion 2 cloves of garlic 1 pcs Javanese Tamarind Mushroom (according your taste) -----

To cooking stir-fried papaya leaves is not as simple as stir-frying other vegetables because, before stir-frying them, you have to make sure the papaya leaves are not bitter. To make it not bitter, papaya leaves must be boiled first. Add one packet of tamarind to remove the bitter taste. Boil until the papaya leaves wilt or turn yellowish. That's about 10-20 minutes. Depends on how many papaya flowers you want to cook.
