—Shreeni, Mumbai

Bamboo shoot is used extensively in the North Eastern parts of India as well as central, like Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand.

Make a salad with it: Boil, drain and chill the bamboo shoot. Add greens and a dressing of your choice. You can also throw in bamboo shoot in a chicken curry or stir-fry it with, say, beans. Don’t overcook it though. Add bamboo shoot in the end,when the protein is cooked (15 to 20 minutes maximum).
