BINJAI



This is one fruit that is really very tempting to me. I would buy it whenever I see them in the market. It is seasonal and only available somewhere during the local fruit season. There are two types of binjai, one which is sweet and another of sweet and sour.
You can eat it on its own ( which is mouthwateringly good ! ) or the sweet and sour type is more for cooking and making "sambal".

Arrow roots

The CNY season brings about plenty of seasonal delicacies. And this arrow root is one of them. Through a recommendation from a friend we bought some arrow roots and made some chips. This is the first time that we tried and tasted the arrow roots. All you need to do is to slice them thinly and fry them. You dont need to add anything to it. It is very delicious and crispy. Tastes sweeter than potato chips.
In no time the chips all disappeared from the plates.
You could also stir fry them with chicken. I didnt have the opportunity to try it yet but I could imagine the taste.
