The proximate compositions of 42 varieties of underutilised fruits were analysed including ceri terengganu (5 varieties), bambangan (Mangifera pajang) (3 varieties), dabai (6 varieties), asam gelugur (Garcinia atroviridis) (11 varieties), durian (5 varieties), isu (5 varieties), nyekak (4 varieties) and sukang (3 varieties). The moisture content of the fruits ranged from 0.24% to 56.68% with asam gelugur Taiping having the lowest and ceri terengganu PK24 the highest. Asam gelugur Kampung Layang-layang also had the lowest ash content (1.36%) while ceri terengganu PK42 had the highest (4.44%). The lowest fat content was in bambangan ovoid fruit (0.2%) while the highest was in durian 1-89 variety (40.14%). The highest protein content was also found in durian 1-89 variety (8.81%) while asam gelugur Kampung Biong fruit had the lowest (1.06%). The carbohydrate content ranged from 37.86% (ceri terengganu PK4) to 95.26% (asam gelugur Bota Kanan). The energy content of the fruits ranged from 166.85 Kcal (ceri terengganu PK4) to 567.12 Kcal [dabai niah (soaked)]. The proximate compositions of these fruits are useful for developing a Malaysian underutilised food composition database.
