Air Mata Kuching

Air Mata Kuching

Mata Kuching is one of our Malaysia local fruits.

The flesh is sweet and crunchy.

It is smaller in size than Longan.

I bought this Mata Kuching from market,

sold by a couple at RM5.00 per kg.

Direct translation from Mata Kuching ("Cat Eyes")....well,

after peeling the skin off, it looks like Cat Eyes!

Full Translations : Air (Water), Mata (Eyes) and Kuching (Cat)

You should try this fruit, you won't regret it.

You can eat it directly or make it into so call dessert or beverage.

Wash thoroughly until the water runs clear.

I put inside the fridge to cold it.

After one hour, take it out and peel off the skin.
