A very sweet, succulent fruit of Asian cultivation. The name literally translates to 'Dragon's Eye' as the flesh is translucent, so the black seed shows through, making it look like the eye of a dragon. It has a thin shell that can easily be squeezed open with your fingers or cracked open with your teeth to reveal the edible fruit inside.
