Takob Akob drying in the sun ...

This is not the usual stuff I upload on Flickr but I couldn't resist all that red. This is a fruit perhaps endemic to Borneo. I haven't seen this in in Peninsular Malaysia. My mom was drying them to use in our traditional dishes here in the northern part of Borneo. The seed is sweet . The outer part of the fruit is dried and has a very sour taste when rehydrated in soups or sauces. I cant quite describe the smell,suffice to say that that it's unique...Reminded me of sun dried tomatoes!!hehehe...

It's a public holiday here in Malaysia and we will have 4 days off work including the weekend. Yehaaahh!!!

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri to all moslems celebrating and have a great weekend to all in Flickrland!
