Smooth, creamy and filling, this pudding is also delicious with two pitted prunes or figs blended in. The variation with tahini is particularly popular. (See Lesson 6 to find out more about Tahini.) When you make this pudding, don't throw away the papaya seeds. They have a wonderful spicy and peppery flavor. They can be dried and used to flavor other dishes such as Squash Noodle Salad (see recipe, page 86).
1/2 ripe papaya (approximately 1 cup) peeled and seeded
1 banana peeled and cut in chunks
Put the papaya in a blender and blend just enough to break up the fruit
