Rujak Brunei - Salad
(Spiced Fruit Salad)
Cooking recipes ingredients
1 small cucumber, sliced thin
1 cup thinly sliced jicama
1 cup cubed firm ripe papaya
1 star apple (carambola), sliced
1 to 2 cups cubed fresh or canned ripe pineapple
1 firm green pear, cubed
1 firm tart apple, cubed
FOR THE SAUCE
3 tablespoons dry roasted peanuts
1 or 2 hot red chillies, sliced and seeded
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon tamarind paste, dissolved in 1/2 cup water and strained
1 small green banana, sliced (optional)
Cooking recipes directions
Arrange the cucumber and any 3 or more of the fruits in separate
heaps on a serving platter. In a food processor chop fine the peanuts,
then
blend in the chillies, brown sugar, tamarind, liquid, and banana
(if used) to form a paste. It is traditional to serve the sauce
and fruit separately. Each diner may then select the fruit and dip
it into the thick sauce. The modern method is to toss the fruit
and sauce together and serve the salad at room temperature. |
