Petai
It was when I'm in facebook looking through some images from my aunt that i saw Petai and realised I have been looking for its English term. I remember i asked few friends of mine about it, but no one really sure what it is called. So i did my homework in Wikipedia.This is what i got
"Parkia speciosa (petai, bitter bean,sataw, twisted cluster bean, yongchaa, yongchaak, zawngtah or stink bean), is a plant of the genus Parkia in the family Fabaceae. It bears long, flat edible beans with bright green seeds the size and shape of plump almonds which have a rather peculiar smell, characterised by some as being similar to that added to methane gas.[1] "
