While stopping for lunch at Temerloh on the way back to Kuala
Lumpur we got a few bunch of fresh Maman, a local fresh vegetable that could be
pickle or stir-fry as a vegetable dish. By this morning my spouse had
it pickled as Jeruk Maman. Above are the Maman that had been pickled.
It not that difficult to pickle the Maman. Traditionally in the Malay culture, after cutting and cleaning the Maman is put in glass container and then fresh water is added. Then add a little Nasi [cooked rice] and a little salt; if one like just add a few fresh chilli. Leaves it for a few days to ferments.
After that it could be used in the cooking of Masak Lemak with fish or just consumed as an appetizer with Sambal Belacan. Nowadays it rather difficult to get the fresh Maman in the town market; so, it is now sort of a luxury for townsfolk and I loved it.
