This green beauty is yet another Monsoon vegetable.
In Marathi it is called Kavala / Lajalu Kavla / Kovala
In Hindi they call it odabirni
Bengali - Nalakashina,
Konkani - Kawda,
It's botanical name: Smithia sensitiva
It is found in temperate and tropical zones from India, Pakistan and China, through southeast Asia to New Guinea and northern Australia.
In Maharashtra it is cooked in form of Gravy, Vadi, Aamti in the month of Shravan ( श्रावणी सोमवारी बनवली जाते).
Adding tamrind while making it's gravy helps to remove the stickiness of this vegetable.
I have read in few articles that these leaves are febrifuge & galactagogue.

Dragon stalk yam or Shevla ( शेवळाची भाजी) , botanical name - Amorphophallus commutatus
It is available during first rains in Maharashtra and is prominently found in western ghats.
It should be cooked with green kakda fruit which has sour taste and is used to reduce the itchiness of this vegetable.

This vegetable has got earthy and meaty taste.
While cooking with all masalas it gives nice aroma , same as chicken curry.

P.S - If you’d like to freeze these, deep fry to a crisp in oil and store in an airtight container.You can cook it whenever you want to have it. They’ll easily last for a year.
