Acar Buah ( Spicy Fruits Pickle)

During this ramadan or fasting month, I


always like to have this sweet, sour and spicy fruits salad/pickle with my rice. This
spicy fruits salad/pickle also popular among Malaysian during special functions such
as at wedding, formal gathering, family gathering or religion gathering (kenduri),
etc.

This mixed dried fruits salad is cooked till dry and


can last for a long time in air tight container.

Ingredients:

1 packet mixed dried fruits

1/2 cup raisins

1 cup sambal olek(cili boh)

1/2 cup chopped garlic

1 medium size onion (chopped)

4 pieces cloves

2 pieces star anise

1/2 teaspoon loose cardamon

1/2 tablespoon cinnamon powder

1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger

1/3 cup tarmarind juice

2 tablespoon splenda or sugar

4 tablespoon Olive oil

salt to taste

Method:

In a big skillet heat olive oil. Sautee onion and garlic until brown. Add in sambal olek
or any blended red chilli. Cook for about 5 minutes or until cooked. Then add all the
spices. Add dried fruits. Add a cup of (VINEGAR)/ water. Seasoned to taste. Let it
cook until dry. Chill it in the fridge to store. Serve with warm rice. This dish is a little
bit sweet with some spicy and sour taste to it. A little bit of it goes a long way.

About Myself

7.

I always tell my students that "English is fun and easy". No one is perfect in this world, thus don't expect
that your teacher or lecturer can't make any mistake while using English! English is a language, I guess
there's nothing 'fix' in this life, so, I can conclude that - learning other language is like a non-stop train,
you will not reach the destination. Learning English is a progress, I am learning now, by sharing, reading
and teaching.
