Entire young and pliable pod is cooked and eaten or used in the preparation of curries. In older pods which develop tough exterior, the pulp and immature seeds remain edible just before ripening begins. A dish is made by slicing pods into 5 cm lengths and boiled in water along with lentils. The flesh inside the pod sections is eaten.
Alternatively, pods can be opened and the flesh and young immature seeds scraped out pods are boiled in water for a few minutes. The seeds of edible pods should be white in color. The seeds should be scraped out with the winged shells intact and as much of the soft white flesh as possible. It is rinsed with water to remove the sticky, bitter film. It is mixed with rice or roasted or fried in oil to give a taste like sweet groundnuts. The flesh can be cut into strips and steamed or fried, used to make a soup or be added to other sauces.

M. oleifera is a fast-growing, deciduous tree that can reach a height of 10 -12 m (32- 40 ft) and trunk diameter of 45 cm (1.5 ft). The bark has a whitish-grey colour and is surrounded by thick cork. Young shoots have purplish or greenish-white, hairy bark. The tree has an open crown of drooping, fragile branches and the leaves build up a feathery foliage of tripinnate leaves.
The flowers are fragrant and hermaphroditic, surrounded by five unequal, thinly veined, yellowish-white petals. The flowers are about 1.0 - 1.5 cm (1/2) long and 2.0 cm (3/4) broad. They grow on slender, hairy stalks in spreading or drooping flower clusters which have a length of 10 -25 cm.
Flowering begins within the first six months after planting. In seasonally cool regions, flowering only occurs once a year between April and June. In more constant seasonal temperatures and with constant rainfall, flowering can happen twice or even all year-round.
The fruit is a hanging, three-sided brown capsule of 20 - 45 cm size which holds dark brown, globular seeds with a diameter around 1 cm. The seeds have three whitish papery wings and are dispersed by wind and water.
In cultivation, it is often cut back annually to 1 - 2 m (3 - 6 ft) and allowed to regrow so the pods and leaves remain within arm' s reach.
