COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare the Strawberry Purée:
Cut strawberries (350g) in half and put them in a blender or food processor
Add 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk (or sweetened condensed coconut milk) and 1 cup of evaporated milk (or evaporated coconut milk). You can adjust the taste to your liking by putting less sweetened condensed milk.
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Cook the tapioca pearls:
On a stovetop, bring 1.5 to 2 liters of water to a boil.
Add 1 cup of tapioca pearls and boil for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking.
After 10 minutes, most of the white centers in the pearls should be gone.
Turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the tapioca rest for 15 minutes until the pearls become completely translucent.
Drain the cooked tapioca pearls and rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch.
Drain off the cold water completely.
Transfer the tapioca pearls to a bowl and mix them with 1 cup of coconut cream until well combined.
Assemble the Dessert:
In a serving bowl, or in individual serving cups, mix tapioca pearls, evaporated milk (or evaporated coconut milk), and strawberry cream
Top with diced fresh strawberries
Stir, serve, and enjoy this refreshing Dessert!
