[Goanet] Talking Photo: We call it ?Chipttam?

Spacious 3 bedroom flat (3BHK)available for sale in upscale area near Miramar beach Contact: goaengineer...@aol.com I came across a similar fruit in the supermarket but orange in colour when ripe. It belongs to the genus Physalis and commercially also know by the same name but nowhere near our chipttam (in salcette, we call them chiputtan) where taste is concerned.

We call it ‘Chipttam’ When matured or ripped, these are edible and I ate plenty. Edible part inside is round shape, about the size of Green Peas They grow well in the fields. You don’t to plant or grow them they grow just like that e.g. villages, bushes, fields etc They may grow around the same place year after year. This is a roadside bush plant and don’t know if it is grown commercially. However, ripped ones sometimes available for sale in small quantities at market with those ladies who sell home grown seasonal fruits etc. When ripped, it become yellowish When we were kids, we used the raw ones to blow air by mouth and then strike/break it on our foreheads so as to give a ‘ttok’ or ‘blop’ sound.
