In Bengal there is a gourd called snakegourd. The snakegourd is called chichinge. The gourd is called like that because it looks like a snake. It is very tasty.It is cooked with coconut, potatoes and beans and a tasty curry is made with it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msVsba86i0E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRlLs8rCyN0
