Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups Ripe papaya (chopped)
  • 1 cup Low-fat milk or dairy-free milk
  • 1.5 tbsp Honey adjust to taste
  • 1 tsp Chia seeds optional for fibre
  • 2 tbsp Cornflour helps set the pudding
  • 1/2 tsp Cardamom powder

Equipment

  • Mixer grinder
  • Saucepan
  • Serving bowls

Method
 

  1. Blend the chopped papaya into a smooth puree and keep aside.
  2. In a saucepan, add milk and heat on low flame.
  3. Mix cornflour in 2 tbsp cold milk, stir well, and pour into the hot milk.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes until it slightly thickens.
  5. Switch off the flame, add cardamom powder and honey. Mix well.
  6. Once the milk mixture cools completely, add the papaya puree and whisk until smooth.
  7. Pour into serving bowls, sprinkle chia seeds, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Notes

Use only ripe, sweet papaya to avoid bitterness. For a vegan version, use almond or coconut milk.
