It is still grown in West Africa, where it is sometimes called "garden egg". It's widely grown in Brazil, where it is known as jiló. The fruit ripens to orange-red, but is usually picked while it is green and sweet.Grill it, stuff it, add it to stews, or just put it in a bowl and admire it. This is a beauty.25 seeds
