Best Papaya And Young Coconut Soup Recipes

PAPAYA SOUP

Steps:

• In a small saucepot combine the sugar and water, and cook over low heat until sugar is dissolved.
• Pour into a bowl containing the lemon and lime juice. Add the papaya, candied ginger, and mint. In a separate bowl toss raspberries and blackberries.

PAPAYA AND YOUNG COCONUT SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and de-seed papaya. Cut in half. Cube ½ of the papaya. Set the other half aside.
• Remove milk from coconuts. Crack them open and clean out the insides. Young coconut meat is soft and easily removed. I use a spoon to scoop it out.
• Put the coconut milk and meat in a blender and blend until smooth. Strain. This will remove any little pieces of hard shell that get into the mix. Clean out the blender to ensure no hard pieces remain.
• Return the strained coconut mixture back to the blender and add the cubed papaya, one of the bananas, cinnamon, vanilla, and dates. Blend on high until totally incorporated.
• Put in large bowl and then cube the rest of the papaya, chop the other banana in ½ inch pieces and add to the puree. You can add other raw fruits such as strawberries or raspberries, its up to you.
• Serve cold and store left overs covered in the refrigerator. This is very perishable so eat it quickly!
• Bon Appetit.
