Durian Dinner

This blog should really be called durian.com. Banyak pasal durian saja.

But here’s what I had for dinner last night.

That’s right, durian and rice. Well, durian dadahan and durian kuning with nasi putih and nasi kabun, to be exact.

The only other person I know who shares the same predilection for having durian with rice is Cousin Najul, who I caught sneaking in the kitchen gratifying his craving at 1am. Only one thing to do- join him. It’s very kampung-style, so what? The rice gives the soft durian some texture, volume and “bite”. Give it a go. In Bangkok they have sweet mango with sticky rice, so durian and rice is not as strange as you might think.
