K:
Indian cucumber is the English name of Koduri or Konduli or Tindora.
Potol, even though is a look-alike and a cousin ( they all belong to
the Cucurbetaece family), is a different veggie.

Hi All:
Could anybody tell me what is the English name of Potol - yes, the
vegetable that is abundant during the summer(?) in Assam and $9.00 a
pound in the US :). Like any other vegetables, I was never crazy
about it but it is okay. But the hindusthani(?) name 'parowol' for
'potol' is just driving me nuts. I would rather talk about it in
English. :)
Oh, please don't think this now: 'eh, aami imaan sirius kotha paati
aasu - dex-bidexor baare-boronia rajnitir kotha-r logote`
upor-khapor kotha, eo akou aahil eta paak-ghoror xoru kotha eta loi'.
I better go home to take care of our two beautiful (I better
say, handsome before they feel insulted, but they are too beautiful
- you know what I mean, if you ever have had a dog at home) dogs.
Have a great evening, Everyone!!
