Eat Healthy - Fiber Rich : Asinan Buah

Asinan buah is Bogor's favourite fruit snack. Bogor is my husband's hometown. So everytime we visited Bogor, we always brought back home a couple of asinan buah. However, since we moved out of the country, it has been a long time we never had asinan buah, so my husband asked whether I can make my own.

It is the first time I make my own asian buah. But it turned out to be very easy. Not all the fruit I can find here, but I can find the replacement. I used cucumber, pineapple, apple and american cherry, but other juicy fruit is also fine. Asinan buah is best served with ice during hot summer day. This is my entry for Eat Healthy event which takes the theme "Fiber Rich".

Here is the recipe :
