Jilo Morro Redondo, translated "round hill", is typically harvested while still green and may be fried or used in main dishes and soups. Sauteed jilo and onions are also a popular snack in parts of Brazil.Large plants can reach up to 5' tall, producing tremendous amounts of fruit over a single season. Left on the plant, the dark green fruit will turn orange and finally red once fully ripened.
