Mince Pork With Chokos

My mum grows chokos in her back yard. The Choko is a vegetable that belongs to the same family as melons, cucumbers and pumpkins. Filipinos call this vegetable sayote. My mum gave me a couple and I cooked it up with Mince pork. To be honest, I don't know the Filipino name for this but it's a quick and tasty dish. Little one loves his dish and eats all that is in her bowl. As usual, best served with steamed rice.
