MAKAPUNO
This is one of the usual delicacies at home especially nearing summer. Papang (our father) always surprises us with makapuno ( "mutant coconut ") and i kept asking him why it is called makapuno? and How this fruit is made? They say every coconut tree bears only 1 makapuno in its fruit time, its like a gem, so you are very lucky when you find one.
