Buah Nangka or Jackfruit

Image may contain: food
the nangka is a native fruit of South East Asia and is a particularly well loved fruit in Sarawak. The young nangka fruit is often cooked with coconut milk to make a delicious soup.

Ripe nangka which may reach the weight of 5 kg. is a delectable fruit, often served in banquets. Cut into small slices and added to cold coconut milk it becomes a lovely dessert.
