Tapioca porridge

Tapioca pearls are starchy balls obtained from the roots of the cassava plant. When cooked, they become like chewing marmalade. Tapioca is nutritious, healthy, delicious and even a little funny. A very popular product in tropical countries: in South America, in East Asia, and on the islands.

Various dishes are prepared from tapioca pearls, mainly desserts. The world-famous tapioca drink is Bubble Tea, which is drunk through a straw and has many cooking options. Today we will prepare a hearty and delicious breakfast - porridge. Yes, ordinary (and at the same time unusual) porridge :)

Let's start:

1. Pour coconut and soy milk into a small saucepan. Coconut milk can be prepared either independently or canned.

2. Add sugar to the mixture and mix. By the way, you can do without sugar by replacing it with sweet berries and fruits that can be put in porridge when serving.

3. Put the pan on medium heat, add coconut chips and tapioca pearls to it, mix. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a minimum and cook the porridge for ten minutes. From time to time we do not forget to interfere. It may take a little more or a little less time. The pearls should become almost completely transparent - this indicates their readiness.

4. Let the porridge cool down a little, then put it on serving plates, decorate it to your taste: it can be pieces of fruit, berries, chopped nuts, grated chocolate, dried fruits, etc. In addition, you can serve honey or maple syrup, any jam to such a porridge (in this case, especially when cooking, it is better to do without adding sugar).

We serve it on the table in a warm form.

Bon appetit!
