Wax gourd/Winter melon (Benincasa hispida)
![Wax Gourd, Winter Melon, One Community](https://www.onecommunityglobal.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/wax-gourd-winter-melon-large-scale-gardening.jpg) |
Benincasa hispida is a monotypic species of vining cucurbit native to Asia, where it is is cultivated for the large melon-like fruits. The fruits have a waxy coating and can be stored for up to a year. The fruit flesh is sweet in immature fruits, but loses sweetness as the fruits ripen. Mature fruits are used in soups and stir-fry dishes. |
CULTURAL CONSIDERATIONS
- The vines like rich humusy soil
- The vigorous vines require support
- Wax gourd requires a long warm growing season
- If sufficient pollinators are not present, hand pollinate
- Harvest fruits for eating early; let storage melons mature
PLANTING GUIDELINES
Start seeds early indoors to maximize growing season. Plant out after last frost and when soil has warmed. Row covers, hot caps or polytunnel/hoop house cultivation may be required in cooler climates. Foliar feed with liquid seaweed or fish emulsion during the growing season.

Ash Gourd Coconut Curry
Recipe courtesy of: Indu’s International Kitchen
Total Time: 50 min
Prep: 20 min
Cook: 30 min |
Yield: 4 Servings
Level: Easy |
Ingredients
- 4 ½ cups fresh pineapple, chopped
- 4 cups cucumber
- 3 cups wax gourd
winter melon
- (Kumbalanga) skin
removed
and cut into small
1/2-inch pieces
- 4 small green chillies, cut length-wise (use less if you
don’t want heat)
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 & 3/4 cup coconut
milk* – freshly
extracted using grated
coconut (see right)
or canned coconut milk
- 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
- 2 tsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp mustard seeds
- 2 dry red chillies,
each split into two
- 4-5 fresh curry leaves
|
Directions
- Remove the skin of the wax gourd or kumbalanga and chop into pieces
- Take a medium-size cooking pot and add the kumbalanga pieces in it along with the green chillies, salt, and water. Cover with a lid and cook on medium to low flame for about 5-6 minutes until the kumbalanga pieces are cooked and there is little water left. (You may want to check frequently to see if the kumbalanga pieces have turned soft since we do not want to over cook them as they will turn pulpy). Turn the heat off and set aside.
- Extract the coconut milk (if you are using home-made) as shown below. Take about 1 and 3/4 cup of the milk and add to the pot with the cooked kumbalanga.
- Again start the heat back on and cook on low heat for about 2 minutes or until you see a couple bubbles in the coconut milk mixture. Immediately turn heat off and set aside.
- For the final tadka (oil tempering or garnish), take a small pan or skillet and heat the coconut oil in it. When hot, add the mustard seeds and once they start spluttering, turn heat to low and add the dry red chilly pieces and the curry leaves. Saute on low for about 1 minute more and turn heat off. Add this oil garnish over the cooked pumpkin and coconut milk mixture.
- Enjoy with plain white rice and pickle on the side.
*For the coconut milk extraction:
- Take 1 heaped cup of freshly grated coconut (or fresh frozen grated coconut that has been thawed and is at room temperature).
- Blend this coconut with 1 cup of warm water and strain through a strainer. Again blend the strained extract using another 3/4 cup of warm water to get about 1 and 3/4 cup coconut milk.
Notes:
Make sure you do not overcook the kumbalanga pieces and make sure there is not much water in the pot before you add the coconut milk so that you get the desired thick consistency of the curry.
There is another variation of this dish, which is mostly similar to this but also additionally uses yoghurt and is called kumbalanga pachadi |
