Stuffed bladders?  Haggis?

Its a veg of some sort or fruit. I have no idea.

[RAGER]

Maybe a little background? 

But now you say veg. Kinda looks like a peeled shallot.

[mortlock]

Its big like a mellon. No background. It was given to my gf along with some other produce in a bag and we didnt see it until we got home. Its kind of rubbery feeling.

Weird looking egg plant. If you hold it in your hand it looks like an alien brain.

Did I post this before? Gado Gado or something similar, in Indonesia. Town of Balikpapan on Kalimantan Island (Borneo). This lady had a roadside warrung (restaurant) and this was her specialty. We watched her make the dressing from scratch, in a big mortar. Peanuts, I think shrimp paste, I forget what else. Sugar and sambal I guess?

[mortlock]

Heres the breaded and fried alien brain.

[RAGER]

Fuck yeah. How was it?
