Talasani is a stir fry with garlic and chilly seasoning.It is a side dish had with rice.It is made with different vegetables.the most famous are tendle (ivy gourd) talasani,karathey (bittergourd) talasani,mulangi talasani etc…….Todays here is a talasni made with half ripe still firm papaya.It has a slight sweetish taste.The garlicky flavour n chillies together makes it a wonderful recipe.
