Winged Bean (Known as “Tengnou Manbi” in manipuri)

 

This is one of my favourite vegetable back home in Manipur. Locally known as “Tengnou Manbi“ and also known as winged beans.  Tender “Tengnou Manbi” eaten fresh with “morokmetpa” or “eromba” is yummy.

Picture of a commonly available vegetable in manipur locally known as “Ekai-thabi”.  Mostly eaten raw with “Morokmetpa” (Manipuri Chilly sauce) or used in “Kanghou”.

Please drop by a comment if this vegetable is eaten in any other place other than in manipur.
