Name in English please.

Sister-in-law was cooking this vegetable today but could not tell me what it is. In Thai it is "ฝักหมู" which Google tells me means "pork pod".

This makes no sense. Does an English language name exist?  Caution! It may not be Thai but a Lanna dialect name.

Can't get far.

Just that ฝัก stands for a gourd/pumpkin.

 

หมู is pork, no question.

Is it the name of a dish?

Mystery solved.

Fakmoo "ฝักหมู" is a Chiang mai dialect word for ฟักเขียว which translates as "Green Squash"
