How to Grow
Sow seeds directly into well-drained, fertile soil in a sunny position. Plant 2–3cm deep, spacing plants 100–150cm apart to allow for vigorous vine growth. Provide a strong trellis or fence for support. Winter gourds thrive in warm, sunny Australian conditions from spring through summer. Harvest when the skin is firm and smooth, before the gourd becomes too mature.
In the Kitchen
Winter gourd (fak khiao / ฟักเขียว) is a classic Thai ingredient — use in gaeng jued (Thai clear soup) with minced pork and glass noodles for a light, comforting dish. Stir-fry with oyster sauce and garlic for a simple side. Add to Chinese-style braised dishes or steam with seasoning for a healthy, low-calorie meal.
