Carambola (Averrhoa carambola), often known as Starfruit in Australia, is the fruit of a small to medium evergreen native to South East Asia. The fruit is a popular food throughout Southeast Asia, the South Pacific and parts of East Asia. Nowdays the tree is cultivated throughout the tropics including Australia.
The fruit is oval shaped, up to 15cm long with (usually) five prominent longitudinal ridges. In cross section it resembles a star, hence the common name. The fruit is sweet and tart with a crunchy firm texture and are best eaten when they have just turned yellow. More information can be found here; (visit link)
