Coolalinga papaya recipes for wellness
Here are my latest Coolalinga papaya recipes. Due to the confusion of papaya’s and paw paws, you could also see it as a Coolalinga paw paw recipe.
(By the way, because of the mix of other tropical fruits I’ve included, you could also see these papaya recipes, as a top option for Coolalinga dragon fruit recipes, or Coolalinga bananas recipes dessert style, or Coolalinga ruby red grapefruit recipes).
I got all the fruit for these recipes from my local Coolalinga region, including some of the local organic farms and stores.
For example, see the tropical, pink grapefruit at the foot of this page. I didn’t even know tropical versions existed!
Whatever mix of tropical fruit recipes you’re after, these easy Tapioca Pearls mixes are a delicious and healthy option.

Coolalinga paw paw recipe too
Coolalinga papayas are often confused with paw paws, even though they are quite different.
Elsewhere, I’ve talked about the differences between these two yummy fruits.
For instance, see my comments in some of our other paw paw and papaya recipes.
As a result of this confusion, you may well have found this by searching for something like a Coolalinga paw paw recipe.
If so, you’re in the right place. This recipe is wonderful with either paw paw or papaya.
Coolalinga papaya recipes start with tropical fruit options

Coolalinga papaya recipes & tropical fruit options. All these papaya blends also contain banana, so you could also see these as a Coolalinga bananas recipes dessert mix. (Frozen banana is used to make any fruit blend, including my smoothies, more fluffy).
Coolalinga papaya recipes ingredients
Here are all the ingredients.
The quantities below will make about 5 small to medium glasses of dessert, as pictured.
- Half cup of small tapioca pearls
- Tin of coconut milk
- One pod of vanilla extract
- One frozen Coolalinga banana
- A cup of chopped Coolalinga papaya
- A mix of tropical, Coolalinga fruit, such as star fruit, red and yellow dragon fruit, ruby red grape fruit, and additional chopped Coolalinga papaya.
- A quarter to a half teaspoon of salt.
If your budget can stretch to it, I recommend using organic versions of as many of these ingredients as possible.
The organic ruby red grapefruit in the Coolalinga region are especially delicious. See them in the picture immediately below.

Coolalinga ruby red grapefruit recipes healthy dessert made by using the same papaya or paw paw blend, along with Tapioca Pearls.
Making papaya or Coolalinga dragon fruit recipes for sago, & other tropical fruit
Follow these steps.
- Pre-soak sago (Tapioca Pearls) for about 30 minutes to an hour. (Cover with water).
- Bring 6 cups of water to the boil
- Add tapioca
- Lower heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes
- Stir frequently so the pearls, or sago, do not stick together
- When it looks translucent, pour the tapioca pearls into a fine mesh strainer, and run cold water over it. In other words, wash it so the pearls don’t stick together.
- Meanwhile, in same pot, add coconut milk, salt, vanilla, and stir.
- Then, stir in the washed tapioca pearls, or sago, and cook a few more minutes on a low heat
- Remove from heat and chill in fridge for 2 hours minimum.
- Puree the Coolalinga papaya in a blender
- Pour the Tapioca mix into the several glasses
- Put in fridge and let it set for about least a couple of hours
- Mix chopped tropical fruit into each glass
- Put a layer of puree onto top of the Pearls
- Add a decorative piece of tropical fruit to top of glass
- Put in fridge for another four hours, approximately.
See also our pictures of the tapioca pearls, as well as the cooking and straining process, in our sago recipe, and tapioca pearls with dragon fruit recipe, on the Flametree Recipes pages.

More recipes, including on our Facebook page too
Here are some other similar recipes on Flametree’s Recipe Page.
They both use Tapioca Pearls, but with different fruits.
Follow the links to find them on the Flametree Recipes pages.
Plus, with these recipes, you can quickly make your own combinations, such as with the local passionfruit on the plate below.
By the way, be aware that many of the bought options have far too much added sugar, and little idea of how to maximise protein.
Even more delicious yellow dragon fruit option
![Yellow dragon fruit for a Coolalinga ruby red grapefruit recipes healthy dessert](https://flametreeyogastudio.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Coolalinga-yellow-dragon-fruit-in-tropical-fruit-plate-300x225.jpg)
Yellow dragon fruit option (in foreground, and on right), is a more tasty version of dragon fruit. Try it in your mixes. Yellow dragon fruit are embedded in several of the Coolalinga papaya recipes mixes shown above. I mean that you actually can’t see the delicious pieces of fruit, of several types, that’s mixed into the sago base.

By the way, as I mentioned, the fluffy nature of the Coolalinga papaya recipes is due to also mixing in bananas.
It’s a little known fact that frozen banana is a necessary feature of any smoothie or smoothie bowl recipe.
As a result, these tasty mixes also double as a Coolalinga bananas recipes dessert option.
