There's really nothing to rival the taste of buah keluak.Never mind the meats. We prefer those with the thick full on black contents. We dug out the black paste in nuts to savor its bitterness. The intensity of the black paste filled our tastebuds.
It's really too much trouble to cook the nuts. While we would receive homecooked pots of nuts as gifts during festive seasons, we don't get that on the normal days. So we could only have them at the restaurants. Not as good, but they will have to do.

Where do you buy the nuts from? Just the nuts?
dawn, i cook it sometimes. i buy it from tekka market. just the nuts. the spices are separate.
Really? Yum! Thanks Dre - I love it but minus the chicken!
my fav!!! i eat the nuts and dump the chicken!
It's very tedious to prepare the nuts for this dish but yah, very yummy!!! Cant find this in any of the Nyonya restaurants in Penang but there are still a few restaurants serving this in Malacca.
Where's good....and cheap?
where did you buy it frm? the nonya restaurants in joo chiat or katong?
home cooked ones are the best! i used to dislike the look and taste, but since married into peranakan family, been eating for the last 5 years!
whaissit? the dish loooks soooo delish. i must try when i go back next time.

domestic r: melaka bibik neo's. still like that makan place.
suzie wong: cheapest is still to go mkt, buy and cook at home. restaurants still charge about S$1 - S$1.50 a nut.
cheryl: think this was frm the nonya restn in katong.
