Fried Durian Flowers 炒榴莲花

When I say "Durian", this word will surely catch the eyes of many. There are two extremes for Durian: either Super Like or Super Dislike.

Now let's stop talking Durian. And I wanna ask if you guys have ever tried Durian flowers? Flowers? This might sound interesting to some. Yesterday my Mum just fried these flowers (below) for dinner.
 

I somehow remember that last time my Mum had fried these things with curry powder. It tasted better.

A little story about Durian Flowers. During blooming season, newspapers (or maybe large plastics sheets are also used) will be put under the trees to collect the fallen flowers. Before they are cooked, the sticky nectar is removed first.

So, this is one of the special dishes that I have ever tasted: Fried Durian Flowers (炒榴莲花)
