About 1kg of halved baby

potatoes will be fine in a

medium saucepan. Drain into

a large strainer (so potatoes

underneath are not crushed).

Quickly spread onto a tray in a

single layer – they’ll continue

to cook in their own heat.

LYCHEE The juicy flesh

tastes like a more luscious,

perfumed grape. Unshelled

lychees keep for weeks

in the fridge. Eat alone, in

fruit salads, or for delicate

sweetness in a duck salad.

JACKFRUIT A huge

fruit with a richly flavoured,

sharp-sweet flesh. Use in

fruit salads, ice-cream, milk

drinks and soups. The seeds

are edible when boiled then

roasted in a pan with a little oil.

MANGOSTEEN The shiny,

purple-brown skin peels to reveal

segments of white flesh whose

refreshing, sweet-sour flavour

is similar to pineapple. Delicious

eaten by itself, or chilled and

mixed with other tropical fruits.

DRAGON FRUIT

The fruit of a pitaya

cactus. The flesh, eaten

raw, is tasty and mildly sweet,

a little like a kiwifruit. Scoop

the flesh and seeds out of the

chilled fruit with a spoon.

STAR FRUIT Also called

carombola and belimbing

(a smaller variety). Some

ripen to a pinky yellow, most

to a yellow-green. Star fruit

is very crisp and juicy, with

a mild sweet flavour.

DURIAN Durian is

famous as the fruit which

“smells like hell and tastes

like heaven”. To enjoy the

taste without the smell, cut

the flesh into pieces and soak

for a day in coconut milk.
