1. Cut the guava paste into chunks so it will melt faster.
2. In a small saucepan, combine all ingredients (excluding salt & pepper) and bring to a slow boil.
3. Reduce heat and simmer stirring occasionally until reduced to 1 1/4 cups, about 15 minutes
4. Season with as much salt and pepper as you like.
