cross-section of fruits (1)

Tropical Fruits
Malaysia is blessed with many types of fruits. Some are seasonal, like durians, some are all the year round like nangka and jambu. The skin could be unsightly, but the inside is beautiful, and most has symmetrical arrangement. Most tropical fruits are exquisite in taste.

  1. Yum, I love tropical foods and the climate! I remember eating durian as a kid in the Philippines. I like coconut not only to eat but the scent in lotion. Now I'm thinking of vacation, thanks for sharing!

  4. Of all the pics, I miss young jackfruit the most! My mom used to cook lemak udang with young jackfruit from our tree! Sedapnya with sambal belacan, has been decades since I last eaten this!

    1. mungkin agaknya... buah ara banyak tumbuh di tepi sungai. Selalu orang ambil buah buat masak lemak atau kari terutamanya masa kenduri kahwin. Ikan pun suka makan buah ara yang jatuh dalam sungai...
