Le mangoustan est un fruit arrondi, d'aspect singulier. Sa peau épaisse n'est pas comestible; elle durcit en vieillissant et change de couleur, devenant violacée. Sa chair, recouvert d'une épaisse membrane non comestible, est juteuse et sucrée. C'est l'un des fruits les plus succulents d'Asie. On le mange tel quel à la manière d'une orange. 3, record 2, French, - mangoustan
