Today I make shredded fruits, and to be honest I’m little bit confused how to explain this in English, my bad....that is what! I do like to share my Asian cuisines, which is some of them are little bit weird for some people.
Even my hubby was questioning me about that shredded fruits that I made today, He was like...”why do you eat the mango with chilli? you’re supposed to eat sweet mango,not spicy mango” Lol
Oh well,
We normally called this shredded fruits as “Rujak Serut” in Indonesia, it’s basically shredded fruits served with tamarind sauce. And the common fruit to make this Rujak Serut is mango, well actually the basic ingredients it has to be mango, and you can also mix with other fruits such, apple, pineapple, orange, etc. And for today, I combined mango, apple and cucumber to make this weird style of eating fruits, as my husband said 😂🤣
But, if you’re Asian, at least Indonesian I bet you’ll like to having in when the weather is hot! maybe...😉
