1) Rujak Manis



You can call it fruit salad in your country. The differences between fruit salad and rujak manis is the fruits and the sauce. The fruits in the rujak manis are more variable. There are ‘pencit’ (it’s unripe mango, so the taste is more sour), starfruit , ‘bengkuang’ (it’s juicy tuber, like pear but it’s thicker), guava , pineapple, melon, watermelon and cantaloupe. If fruit salad uses mayonnaise, rujak uses ‘gula merah’ and chili. ‘gula merah’ is like an usual sugar, but it is sweeter. Rujak is a teenager’s favourite food because almost all of Surabaya peoples like a spicy food. We give you the recipe, so you can try to make your own rujak.
