Tamarillo sauce is a sweet and tangy sauce made from tamarillos, sugar, and spices. Tamarillos are a unique fruit with a distinct tart flavor, which makes them an ideal ingredient for sauces and chutneys. The sauce is perfect for adding flavor to grilled meats, such as steak and pork, as well as for dipping appetizers such as chicken wings and meatballs. This sauce adds a unique layer of flavor to any dish and is a great way to introduce a new ingredient to your culinary repertoire.

Instructions

1.	Boil a pot of water and drop the tamarillos in for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove tamarillos from boiling water and dip in cold water for a few seconds.

5.	Add extra brown sugar and stir well. Turn off heat and let the sauce cool down before serving.
