Aji De Tomate De árbol - Tree Tomato Hot Sauce image

I'm a little obsessed with the possibility of moving to Ecuador. This is a recipe using the tree tomato which looks like a roma tomato, but pointier. From: http://laylita.com/recipes/2008/03/10/tree-tomato-aji/

Categories     Sauces

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.
  • Add the onion, lime juice, cilantro and salt to taste.
  • Serve warm or cold.

I was a little disappointed with this recipe. The hot sauce was too thin and didn't have much flavor.

Not bad for a homemade hot sauce. I'd give it 3.5 out of five stars.

Wow! This hot sauce is amazing! It's got a great kick to it, but it's not too overpowering. I love the flavor of the tree tomatoes.
