Durian Feast

It’s that season of the year again. The season with unpleasant smell to some, but a delightful smell to others. For me and CH, it’s the best season of the year, a fiesta that has always been awaited for. Lucky for us, to share the same taste of madness towards this King of Fruits.

Last weekend, after a phone call from an Uncle ( we call him Chulan) who’s in charge of taking care the Durian orchard that belongs to the granddad of CH, we decided to went back to CH hometown and there begins the durian feast of the year.

Welcoming us is the great smell of Pengat Durian, Maksu homemade cooking is always difficult to turn away, and we enjoy the whole big bowl of Pengat Durian with of coz the glutinous rice.

Dinner is served with sambal tempoyak ( mind you the fresh flesh of durian meshed with chillies and anchovies) is a super addicted paste that can keep you wanting more and more…at the end you feel sinful to eat that much..owww…

I thot, that was the only durian feast ( besides that , we were served with continuous fresh durian peel straight from the orchard, the easiness of eating durian in Chulan’s place is like eating chips from a packet of Mister potato ( koyak, seluk and makan) , but breakfast on the next day is a surprise to me..Maksu is mashing the durian flesh with some sugar and flour…ohh and she’s is preparing a durian fritters…nyum2 is was simply delicious…ever wonder the taste with some vanilla ice-cream on top…marvelous!

There goes my weekend, spending time with love one ( accompany him to make him happy), fulfilling my duty and obligation as a wife and nurturing my natural taste bud…yes I’m a Durian addict…
