Local Fruit...update

In the spirit of Merdeka...our 50th...lets look at some of the things we love about Malaysia. Here we concentrate on local fruits, some seasonal and some all-year round.

Now, who doesn't recognise or love this 'king of fruits' durians? Maybe a handful of people out there dislike them for the smell. This ones were bought by the roadside at cheap rate of RM3 per kg. Pa & Ma quietly enjoyed their durian party while I was asleep.

Can recognise the species...kampung?...D24?

The party is on

Meanwhile, the dukung is ready for the picking at Ma's kampung in Rantau


So is the rambai


'Cempedak' is very much in season now...very cheap. These were given free...by Ma's relative


This is the 'mata kucing' arwah Atuk Rembau planted...also bearing fruits.


'Mangga'...nice if made into kerabu.


Isn't it nice to be here with all these fruits to enjoy?
