As I am trying new things. I thought I would start doing some posts on how to prepare certain fruits/vegetables that might be new to you.
I remember trying a dragon fruit many years ago, but couldn’t for the life of me remember what it was like, so will grocery shopping over the weekend, I decided to pick one up when I spotted it, to try again.
This is what one looks like:
It is quite strange looking huh?
To prepare, you just place on a cutting board, and using a sharp knife, cut it in half lengthways, until you have this:
Then using a spoon, just scrape out all the white/seeded flesh into a bowl
and then you can dig in and ENJOY!!
The taste is quite similar to a kiwi, but it isnt as sharp, has more of a melony taste I would say. I will definitely buy one again soon.
