Sarawakian Local Delights : Young Cempedak Curry



Young cempedak can be found in abundance in the longhouse gardens. A family may have more than ten cempedak trees of different ages as the fruit tree is easily propagated.

Furthermore, the tree fruit easily and fruits grow clumped together on the trunk and branches. In oder to allow the best fruit to grow to their best sizes and full maturity, the young deformed or slightly malformed fruits are plucked to be processed as cooked vegetable.

One of the best recipes to cook young cempedak is to curry it. It then becomes a very good vegatarian curry which is enjoyed by most people.

some people may be allergic to cempedak.
