Method

  1. Toast the pumpkin seeds in a dry frying pan over medium heat for 3–4 minutes, stirring often, until they puff up and start to pop; tip them onto a plate.
  2. Peel the chayote under running water (it releases a sticky sap), halve it, remove the central seed and cut it into fine julienne.
  3. In a bowl, dress it with the lime juice, a pinch of salt and the chilli powder, toss and finish with the pumpkin seeds just before serving.
