Tapioca is groats made from cassava. My son said that dry tapioca looks like small balls of polystyrene foam. Tapioca is light and nutritious, it doesn't contain gluten and is hypoallergenic. It is great for people who have celiac syndrome or Leśniowski-Crohn disease and also when you want to prevent type 2 diabetes.

Tapioca pudding is one of the favourite desserts of my family. Only ice-cream beats it. I have already prepared many versions of this dessert: vanilla, coconut, chocolate and with fruit. This time, making use of the citrus season, I made orange-lemon tapioca pudding. It was excellent and looked beautiful.

Ingredients (for 4 people)
400ml of coconut milk
200ml of milk
60g of tapioca
2 tablespoons of sugar
1 teaspoon of lemon zest
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
3 oranges

Mix the tapioca with the coconut milk and leave for a minimum of one hour. Add the milk, sugar and lemon zest and boil on a low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring from time to time. The small, boiled tapioca balls should be soft and transparent. Put the segments of the peeled oranges into some small bowls and then add the tapioca pudding. Leave to cool down.

Enjoy your meal!
