This is one of our personal favourites. Curry nuts taste nothing at all like curry. In fact I have no idea why they are called this. They are basically a seed inside quite a large fibrous shell. It takes quite some belting with a rock to get into one, and once you do, you are rewarded with a small nut. It's worth the effort though ! They are generally bought threaded on a bush skewer or string and slid off one by one to eat. |

Another one of my favourites are what is referred to locally as chestnuts. They have no resemblance to the english style chestnut so, again, I don't know why. They are however, deliscous and very filling. Each chestnut would fit comfortably in the palm of your hand. I have had them poached in coconut cream and they're just fantastic. I'm sure there are many more ways to cook them too.
