INGREDIENTS

Tapioca

  • 4 cups water
  • 1 cup large white tapioca pearls 
  • 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Raspberry coulis

  • 1/4 cup frozen raspberries 
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar


DIRECTIONS

1 To make the tapioca, bring the water to a boil in a large pot. Add the tapioca pearls and cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Drain the tapioca pearls, then rinse them thoroughly under cold water; set aside.

2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, almond milk and vanilla extract. Divide between two serving bowls; add the tapioca pearls and stir gently.

3 To make the raspberry coulis, add the raspberries to a small non-stick skillet set over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and saucy. Drizzle a bit of the raspberry coulis over the tapioca; serve.

Prep & cook time: 40 minutes
Serves: 2

 

HUBERT’S TIP

The consistency of the tapioca pearls depends on the cooking time. The pearls shouldn’t be too soft or too firm. You can also use regular black tapioca, but make sure to read the package instructions to prepare it properly.
