aji con maracuya ecuadoriano

March 11, 2007 6:08 AM

Ecuadorian chilli sauce with passionfruit, it's sooo good! Any idea what it's called? Its the most common salsa de aji on ecuadorian restaurant tables, but its been ages & I can't remember the brand. There are a number of different flavours but the one that stands out is 'Con Maracuya'. Unbelieveably tasty. I want to get my hands on some in the UK, but my google-fu has failed me. Bonus points if you can point me to a shop that stocks this stuff...

likewise, there's an ecuadorian cafe on the Seven Sisters Road just south of Finsbury Park tube - they might be able to point you in the direction of a supplier.

Sorry! That's in London, as is londongeezer's suggestion (obviously)

Response by poster: I've found it! Eventually google showed me the goods, it was Ole brand sauce that I was struggling to remember.

This is the product webpage:

Any Londoner's able to comment if they've seen this stuff around locally?

Anyone seen this stuff on the web, even?
