Terung herba


Can you believe that this is brinjal? My mom said that it is called “terung herba” or Herbal Brinjal (if loosely translated to English).

Mom brought it back from school and put it on the table in the kitchen. I thought that it was a toy as it looks so strange and is strikingly yellow. Upon closer inspection, it reveals a bite mark and I saw the leaf – it’s real!!.

I show this to some of my friends and none of them ever see it. Huh, it is strange fruit/vege. Maybe the Education Ministry moves to educate the students on our herbs are a good move. Else, this fruit will be gone forever.
