Buah Kedongdong aka Spondias Dulcis, Ambarella or Golden Apple* is a tropical fruit that looks like an oval prune, feels hard, smells like unripe mango and has an inedible, fibrous core. The flesh is delectably crunchy and tastes tart; a good ingredient in making Rojak (a popular veg & fruit salad dish commonly seen in Indonesian, Malaysia & S’pore).
I recommend you cutting the fruit into slices (Centre) and drizzle it with a D.I.Y sauce (Left) made up of compounding dark soya sauce, chopped chili padi and fine sugar or just simply sprinkle preserved sour plum powder over it (Right). You can also try blending it with preserved sour plums to convert into a glass of refreshing, tasty juice.
If you enjoy eating fresh guava, you will adore this fruit too. Both fruits similarly do not belong to the sweet category but are rather best liked for their ‘crunchy munchy’ texture. Overall, this fruit is a toothsome, healthy snack to masticate at home, work or play.
