Hello Vegan Lovers, today the weather is very sunny so when I break my fast I want something fresh and sweet.Coincidentally a few days ago, my uncle gave me some unripe kuweni fruit and today the kuweni fruit has produced a distinctive kuweni smell, this is a sign that the kuweni fruit is ripe and can be processed into juice. I want to make kuini and cucumber juice, it looks like the combination of the sweet taste of kuini with a little sour taste and fresh cucumber will be a good combination for my juice today.
The kuweni fruit is a fruit that is still a relative with the mango fruit, the most striking difference between the kuweni fruit and the mango is the fragrance of the fruit, the kuweni fruit has a very fragrant aroma and a refreshing sweet and sour taste.
To be clear, the following is the taxonomy of Indonesian kuweni fruit:
Kingdom: Plantae
Division: Magnoliophyta
Class: Magnoliopsida
Order: Sapindales
Family: Anacardiaceae
Genus: Mangifera
Species: Mangifera odorata

Based on data sourced from https://www.sehatq.com/artikel/manfaat-buah-bacang-mangga-kusam-dengan-bau-yang-khas

Kuweni fruit is also rich in antioxidants such as polyphenols, glycosides, flavonols, pectin, mangiverin and quercetin 3-0-glycosides.
Due to the nutritional content and antioxidant compounds contained in the kuweni fruit, the kuweni fruit is often used as a traditional medicine such as overcoming canker sores, maintaining normal blood sugar levels and overcoming constipation.
How to enjoy the kuweni fruit is when the kuweni fruit is old which is characterized by its distinctive aroma, the young kuweni fruit contains a latex that can cause itching when exposed to the skin and cause the tongue to "numb".
The ingredients I use to make Cucumber Kuweni Juice are :
300 grams of cucumber
1 ripe kuweni
100 grams of sugar
1,5 liters of iced water
ice cubes as needed
The steps for making cucumber kuweni juice are:
1.wash the cucumber, then grate the cucumber
2.peel the kuweni fruit, wash it thoroughly so that the sap is gone, cut the kuweni fruit and then blender with 500 ml of ice water until smooth
3.Enter the sugar into the container, then add grated cucumber, stir until the sugar is dissolved
4.Strain the kuweni fruit and put the filtered results into the cucumber and sugar mixture
5.add 1 liter of ice water, stir until all ingredients are mixed
if you feel the juice is not cold enough, you can add ice cubes
it seems that drinking juice doesn't feel complete without snacks, I will fry some bananas that I just took from the garden, the bananas I take from the garden are a kind of jackfruit banana, these bananas are enjoyed when they are ripe, but I also usually fry these bananas when half a day. cook, it's very fat and delicious.
I started to peel the skin, but it wasn't clean because the skin is also delicious when we fry it, I just add salt to taste and then I fry it in hot oil.
now it's just perfect, the combination of soft and sweet bananas with fresh juice, makes iftar more fun, it doesn't have to be expensive to enjoy a delicious meal, the most important thing is that we are able to combine the flavors of food to produce a complete blend with the right taste.
