cempedak is one of the members of the jackfruit family and it is also commonly grown throughout Malaysia as well. the sweet and aromatic cempedak fritters are also one of the popular streetfood snacks in Malaysia. we can actually eat its seed straight from the fritters and its tastes starchy and soft. some people use that fruit to make cakes and i have tried a very delicious creamy cempedak cake before. in Borneo, there is also another fruit native to the jackfruit family called tarap which has a very distinct aroma from both jackfruit and cempedak containing bright white fleshes.

[@brusorolsmaihareang6051]

Is it not jack fruit or what I thought it is jack fruit

[@margaretekalaiabdullah8745]

Yes we call it Tibodak in our dialect Bidayuh. I love it especially cempedak fritters n d seeds can boil put a little bit of salt...

[@BigOnSpiceMarkWiens]

Thanks for all the insights Yong!

[@vlife6337]

It’s been a long time since I saw the tarap fruit. Oh I missed my childhood!

[@dozeoff2180]

I used to eat roasted tarap seeds back in my school days 🤤

[@easthight]

I love Chempedak, it's really common in Malaysia and you can always find road side stores selling fried Cempedak.

[@victorribeiro8147]

i would love try that *- *

[@sophiansukiono7712]

Nice.. cempedak goreng and teh tarik for tea break tomorrow. Thank you Mark Wiens really enjoy watching your videos.

[@tosht2515]

The deep fried cempedak was a nice surprise. I did not know you could eat the seed after cooking them. Very cool. And loved the fruit stand. Such a wonderful day.

[@anaslemans2432]

I also love deep fried campada and it is what my Province (Satun) famous for. It has a unique aroma, texture and is unbelievably sweet. It is not for diabetic .

[@manasmaisnam606]

even jackfruit seeds can be fried and consumed

[@BigOnSpiceMarkWiens]

Thank you so much Tosh!

[@armeen78]

The seed taste like a chestnut...very woody and creamy ☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@freedomv4555]

Hi Mark, we have been watching all your KZbin Channels for a while and we really enjoyed them! We liked a lot the Travel Guide you did for Athens of Greece, which provides a brief of all essential travel information for travelers like us. Hope you can provide this kind of travel guides for all the places you will visit in the future. Thanks for sharing with us for all these amazing contents! !

[@MarilynRose]

Mark have so much passion on food! When you see him, that's exactly the real him as you see him here as a genuine person.

As someone who has always wanted to travel but never really gotten the chance till now your videos have brought me nothing but joy and happiness seeing you immerse yourself in your travels and being so positive. Truly love the work you do Mark and I’m sending you nothing but love and best wishes!

[@JohnMathurin]

Great passion Mark. One can almost taste the fruit from your vivid experience

[@nikhilsrl]

We have jackfruit in Kerala (South India). South East Asia seems to have so many variants - Jackfruit, Cempedak, Durian etc. Oh and jackfruit seeds can also be fried.

[@Listopia10]

Here comes mark with another fruit which most of us where unaware of... Love you brother... from kerala, india 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@usshaka4635]

Cucur cempedak is yummy too! Cempedak fritters. Oh heaven! You can also eat the seed if its fully cooked.. some people make chips out of the seed

[@trappenweisseguy27]

This fruit looks like it could be cultivated in India.

[@parthdinda1618]

You just make my day by posting video almost every week❤️❤️

[@jeetuharjani422]

Awsome video Mark. I never thought that the apple I was eating earlier is one of the different millions fruits out there. Hope you get that seed to your garden un Bangkok

[@eugeniogonzalez5651]

i have not seen a cempedak with seeds and pulp this huge. your second cempedak is a good compromise of the creaminess of durian and the flavor of nangka.... Those fritters remind me of Malaysia which Siuthern area is so close too... great video n fruit Mark!!!

[@BigOnSpiceMarkWiens]

Thank you Eugenio!

I am from Malaysia, watch this at night. Chempedak is one of my favorite. Tomorrow i am going to look for cempedak. We use to feed the cow and goat the shell, and they love it.

[@jonathanhelms927]

Always good to watch your videos while multitasking with work at night in my office. Funny my wife was at a salon today and they had you on. Getting popular! Keep it up!

[@BigOnSpiceMarkWiens]

Thank you so much Jonathan!

A heart❤ for Mr Mark...always watch &follow all your videos & always leave a thumbs up after i watch your videos frm.Philippines

[@karenlim9159]

The young cempedak can be cook. Just peel the outer skin and cut it up. Cook in a spicy coconut milk sauce. Masak lemak we call it in Sarawak. The ripe fruit seed can be boil too then eat it. Just peel away the brown skin.

[@demistevany234]

Yes, we do that in Indonesia, we cook chicken curry with it

[@demistevany234]

Mark, in Indonesia, the unripe cempedak used for chicken curry ( padang culinary), also unripe pineapple for fish curry. We also fried ripe cempedak like tempura. Very ripe cempedak can also to be jam. And the seed also tasty, we boiled sometimes, the taste is like potato and good for your health.

[@BigOnSpiceMarkWiens]

Thank you Karen, that sounds amazing, would love to try that!

[@MissN1234]

We also cook it too here in borneo indonesia

[@RussellBooth1977]

I am growing an orange Cempedak plant which I bought as a seedling in November 2023,I am growing it in a greenhouse just north of Sydney (Newcastle) in Australia & it grew really fast (I bought it & it was 1 foot tall & by this winter in June it was 3 feet tall). While it's young I am giving it frost & cold protection but they will grow in zone 10b which is what the cold hardiness zone is at my location once they have matured a bit,if it's not the cold which will kill the seedlings it's either too much rain or too much sunlight during summer time, the seedlings need to be kept in a semi shaded area to prevent them from getting scorched during summer time. So I look forward to eating that Cempedak as well as the jackfruit that I am also growing, both plants are a bit over 1 metre tall, people grow jackfruit in Sydney so they will grow further north near Newcastle in New South Wales !

[@veraamaylyne3498]

I loved eating the cempedak as we named it in Malaysia. Plentiful in Malaysia. When the fruit is young we cooked it as our vegetable eating with rice. The seeds we boil with little salt till soft.

[@longhaulblue]

Thanks Mark. This video brings back memories especially the last bit. Deep fried and eating the seed.

[@drinkydrinky9236]

[@ForkMeeNoodle]

❤️ from Malaysia, glad you covered about Chempedak fritter and the seed that you can eat it by boiling or fried it and you even describe the taste and the texture which is similar to taro,potato or chestnut, you even tell viewers that small fruit are more sweet and juicy compared to the bigger ones, hopes it will help any foreigners and travellers that want to buy the fruits in the future, in my backyard there's a few Chempedak tree and two or three of them are from the rare variant species that have red flesh and it more sweet and juicy compared to the normal ones,hope you can find and try it in the future

Cempedak similar to jackfruit but it so much more fragrant and sweet. We used to fried it in the flour batter and eat it warm with tea. Yummy

[@RM-jk9yp]

We have it here in the Philippines, what we called it badak, not commonly known here and only few provinces have this kind of fruit and for me it is more than sweet than jackfruit.

[@jademjloop7jade511]

the way they open it is the same as Marang fruit. maybe they are common in taste & texture?

Cempedak is my favourite local fruit! Sometimes I like it more than durian. We coat them in batter and fry them. The same batter that we use for banana fritters. We even made it into ice cream or cheese cake similar to what we do to the durian flesh. They are seasonal fruit and taste so different from jackfruit. Go and try them if you ever come across one in Malaysia where I’m from. You won’t regret it!

Jackfruit very nice good video👍💯💖😍

[@harryprasetyo9237]

Hello, I'm an Indonesian that grew up in the province of South Kalimantan, and there's a recipe here called mandai, which were made of cempedak's skin. To make it, you peel off the outer part of the skin, leaving only the white part, then you cut it to small pieces, clean it, and soak in water to soften it (or use brine to preserve it). You can then consume it after frying them. Tastes great when eaten together with rice. Anyway, great video, Mark! Cheers from Indonesia 🇮🇩
