Tropical Fruit of the Day 29 Dec 06


Today's fruit of the day is...Chompu! Well, that's what it's called in Thailand. I'm not totally sure what the western name is. I've heard it called a rose apple.


They come in green or red or mixes in between. The flavor is similar to starfruit (which will probably be featured when we run out of exotic tropical fruits) but the texture is a cross between apple and celery.


We eat it with sugar and salt mixed together and in Thailand, they mix in chilli with all that, too.
