  15. Glad to be the fist to guess. I guess this is the Octopus fruit from the citrus family also known as Buddha's Hand. Your blog is so lovely. I love your food pictures.

  16. It's a lemon - a Bhudda's hand lemon perhaps? Can't recall exactly what they are called in these parts, but it's a citrus fruit for sure.

    Lovely image, Suganya!
