Vegetable starfruit or also called wuluh starfruit is one of the most widely cultivated plants in Southeast Asia, especially Indonesia.

In addition to a distinctive taste, in this wuluh starfruit there are lots of nutrients such as fiber, carbohydrates, Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Folate, potassium, magnesium as well as zinc and many other nutrients. In 100 grams of star fruit, 30 percent of it contains calories and various other nutrients, as I mentioned earlier.
