This one is a very simple yet delicious recipe that I learnt from a Jain friend and former neighbour. Just the ripe guavas cooked with minimal spices and a sweet note added at the end, and you have a nice side dish that goes well with rotis. I can even have some just by itself. Just make sure that you pick some really good fruit that has lot of flesh and less of the irksome seeds.
