Time 8m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 fresh tree tomatoes (tamarillo) or 5 frozen tree tomatoes (tamarillo)
2 aji bell peppers (serranos or red chilies or habaneros) or 2 hot peppers (serranos or red chilies or habaneros)
2 tablespoons white onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon cilantro, finely chopped
1 tablespoon lime juice or 1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup water
salt

Steps:

  • If using fresh tree tomatoes peel them, boil them for about 5 minutes to make it easier to peel them.
  • If using frozen tree tomatoes, defrost them over night in the fridge, then cut them in half and scoop out all the insides.
  • Blend the tree tomatoes with the hot peppers (seeded and deveined if you want it very mild, you can always save a few seeds and add them in if it's too mild).
  • Transfer the blended mix of tree tomatoes and hot peppers to a small sauce pan, add the water (you can add more if you want a more liquid sauce) and cook on medium heat for about 5-8 minutes.

AJí CUENCANO



Ají Cuencano image

Tomate de árbol (also called tamarillo) is an unusual ingredient that tastes like a savory, tomatolike passion fruit. Available frozen or as pulp at many Latino or South American grocers, it is blended in the mountain city of Cuenca into an easy vinaigrettelike sauce with chiles, onion, cilantro and oil. Use it as a hot sauce, a dip or an accompaniment to meat or fish.

14 ounces of tamarillo pulp, thawed, or 12 tamarillos, peeled and puréed

1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil
2 tablespoons of finely chopped white onion
3 sprigs cilantro, finely chopped
Kosher salt, to taste
