Mhmm you gotta love your fruits! Lychee (or Litchi, Laichi, Lichu) is a delicious fruit and is native to southern China. But they are also grown elsewhere in South-East Asia in countries such as Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and many more.
It has similarities with Rambutan, a common fruit found in Indonesia. It is covered in a pink-red, rough-textured rind that you have to remove.
The inside of the Lychee has a translucent white flesh. It is very sweet and rich in Vitamin C. The texture of this is similar to those of a grape.
The center of the Lychee has a brown looking seed.
Lychee’s should be eaten when it’s a hot day and they just came out of the refrigerator.
