Description
A delightful dessert featuring chewy tapioca pearls and creamy mango.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup mini white tapioca pearls
- 2 large ripe yellow mangoes (Ataulfo mangoes preferred)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
- ¼ cup additional cubed mango flesh (for garnishing)
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, add 6 cups of water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Add the mini white tapioca pearls, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook them for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Turn off the heat and let the pearls sit in the hot water for another 15-20 minutes until they are completely transparent.
- Rinse the cooked pearls under running water to cool them down, then drain using a fine mesh sieve.
- Slice each ripe yellow mango in half, scoop out the flesh, and set aside ¼ cup of this flesh, diced for topping.
- In a blender, combine the mango flesh, coconut milk, and sweetened condensed milk. Add ice cubes and blend until smooth.
- Divide the mango mixture among serving bowls, stir in the tapioca pearls, then top each bowl with the reserved diced mango.
Notes
- Ensure the tapioca pearls are cooked thoroughly for the best texture.
- Chilling the mango mixture before serving enhances the flavor.
