From your description, the fruit seems to be a kumquat!. Or it could possibly be a tomatillo!. Here is a description and links to pictures of both fruits from Wikipedia:
The kumquat fruit (generally called simply "kumquat") resembles a miniature oval orange, 3–5 centimetres long and 2–4 centimetres wide!. Depending on variety, peel color ranges from yellow to red!. A Nagami kumquat has an oval shape, while a Marumi kumquat is round!.

The tomatillo fruit !.!.!. can be any of a number of colors when ripe, including yellow, red, green, or even purple!. Tomatillos are the key ingredient in fresh and cooked Latin American green sauces!. !.!.!. Fruit should be firm and bright green, as the green colour and tart flavour are the main culinary contributions of the fruit!.
