How to enjoy this fruit
A small rounded fruit with a smooth yellow skin, sometimes with a pointed tip. The soft, juicy flesh surrounds several seeds.
Mundu can remain quite tart even when fully ripe. Remove the peel and seeds before eating.
When it’s ready
Look for the skin to turn yellow and the fruit to give slightly. If it is still green and very firm, leave it indoors, away from direct sunlight, and check daily. Enjoy it once yellow and ready; do not wait for it to become mushy.
How to eat it
Cut or peel it open and enjoy the flesh, removing the seeds. Expect a lively sweet-sour flavour, with hints of citrus and apricot. It can also be used in juices, sauces or preserves.
How to store it
Keep firmer whole fruit indoors while its colour develops. Once ripe, refrigerate if you are not eating it straight away. Keep opened flesh covered in the fridge.
