Photography Session Around The House (cont'd)

It's CHILI

This is Chili flower. Guess, we all love chili... but not many of us really know how the chili plants looks like huh? :D

This entry is to provide the answer to the questions I asked in 'Photography Session Around The House' previously... 

No. 1 : It's actually PISANG NANGKA

What so special about Pisang Nangka? Normally you will notice that banana turns yellow when it's ripe but not Pisang Nangka... It stays green forever :D

Pisang Nangka is a little bit smaller than Pisang Tanduk... It's quite big in size compared to other type of Pisang :D.

No. 2 : Serai Wangi

Serai Wangi is not used in cooking. The aroma produced by this type of serai is so strong and it's not suitable to be used in your cooking. We have this serai wangi at home because it's quite difficult to find. It's not usually sold at the market. My wife would add the serai wangi in her bathing water every time she delivers :D

No. 3 : It's NOT Kunyit or 'tumeric'... It's TEMU LAWAK

The plant looks almost look the same (99%). The different is, the color is lighter than the tumeric. The smell also not that strong.

I took Temu Lawak with 'budu' or 'sambal belacan', or 'sambal tempoyak'..hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The taste is AMAZING!!!

My mom told me that it is anti-inflammatory, reduce blood cholesterol and good for the liver.

No. 4 : It's of course a picture of PANDAN plants but next to pandan is a rambutan tree :D

Look carefully at the leaves... :)

No. 5 : It's Topioca... and many would know this plants :D

No. 6 : OK! This is Chili!!!! Take note please... :D

No. 7 : OK... Yesterday, my wife confirmed that the name of the plant is 'SAMBUNG NYAWA'...

Actually, I called it Sambung Nyawa... but I wasn't really sure if it's the official name for the plants.

Now, this plant is VERY... VERY... useful! And this is not a THEORY... I have seen those who consumed the shoots/leaves... and I'm telling you, the results were MAGICS... (of course, dengan kuasa Allah SWT jua..) My advice, it's a MUST HAVE plant at home, like you must have an emergency box at home... :D

Hope this info is of a benefit to many.
