Delicious tarap..where to find one ah????

These photos were taken during our recent trip back to Sabah! Hehe I'm not sure whether the peoples in West Malaysia know about this delicious 'tarap' because the last time i know, somebody told me the west malaysian refered this tarap as monkey's food!!! How could these ignorant people say that??????????

I never thought hubby will like this tarap very much. Can you imagine he can finish one whole 'tarap'?? Punya sedap he ate until he failed to notice he ate everything clean in less than 10 mins. Heheheeeee....! When i asked him howz the Tarap taste??? He said it was simply delicious. Taste like cempedak like that..heheheee!!

But of course the Tarap is super sedap as it's not too ripe when dad opened that day. Not too masak lah kira..! I'm wondering if i can find this 'tarap' in kl..anybody???? any idea?????

sebenarnya pokok ni ada di UTM JB, around fakulti alam bina (my used-to-be faculty lah tu). but my friend (dari sabah juga) tidak pernah ada masa utk hunt for the tree. how we knew it is pokok tarap?? we smelt it!! betull.. wangi bah itu tarap... member yg bukan sabah tercium juga but clueless with the smell (walaupun dorang bilang wangi..)

p/s: i think it's the best local fruit around!! hohoho!!!

Sia prefer tarap yang inda brapa masak, yang telampau ranum rasa dia telampau manis sama licak ba kan.

Paling best buat dish mixed with chicken or babs. Tapi pakai buah yang mentah la.

Iya, sia pun inda perna lagi nampak buah tarap sini KL.

This 'tarap' actually has a funny Malay name. I knew it as I made a scrapbook about vegetations back in secondary school.

The name is 'tempuki' and it is rare to find one in the peninsular.

bawa bibit la n then tanam. :)
