That said, the Borois I tried were absolutely delicious. The Aapel (Apple) Boroi was the sweetest, but the oval one was the best overall because of its extra crunchy texture. And the round deshi boroi had great flavor with just a little tartness.
Here are some pictures.

Incidentally, I tried a Boroi off of a tree in Ayutthaya, Thailand, recently and it tasted just like our Deshi Borois.

boroi is otherwise known as the indian/chinese jujube
I was searching for english name of Boroi and any websie of Boroi, but it is a matter of great regret that I couldn't find any english name for Boroi ( No,Plum is not boroi may be they are from same family but I think, Boroi is different from plum) and there are very few website on Boroi.
Even I couldn't find anything in wikipedia......
Sorry Jesmine, I don't know an English name, but another poster said "Indian/Chinese Jujube." It is certainly nowhere near a plum.
