Temlep and water apple

Saray (Asian pear)
Is it an apple or is it a pear? Khmer say it's neither. It's a Saray and that's it.
Taste: Imagine the crispness of an apple combined with the juices of a pear, but less sweet. Very refreshing!
Tolep (Persimmon)
About the size of a small tomato, with a striking orange colour.
Taste: Surprisingly similar to a mango. Somewhat less sweet and more neutral in taste.
Very nice and mellow.
Water Apple
Thin, edible skin, which looks waxy and turns pink as the fruit ripens. The flesh is divided into 4 sections, each with a single seed. The flesh is firm and white.
Taste: Mild flavor and crisp texture.
