Pawpaw goodness

Pawpaw (or papaya for you Americans) is simply amazing. Rich in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, B vitamins, minerals and fibre, you can't really go wrong with a good pawpaw! And they're plentiful and cheap in the Solomons.

Sometimes you get sick of them as a fruit - and that's when it's time to turn it into a vegetable.

Curried Pawpaw

2 pawpaws, de-seeded and cubed
1 onion, finely chopped 
Milk from one coconut (get out that coconut scraper...)
1 tbsp curry powder
(I also add garlic, but I add garlic to everything.)

Fry the onion (and garlic), add the pawpaw and coconut milk and curry powder. Boil and eat. Tadaaaaaa. 

Edit: I made this the other night and only had one pawpaw; I added chilli, capsicum (bell pepper) and tomato. All cheap Sols ingredients! Tasted delicious. (Eventually, I will start taking photos and adding them here too - but as we know, internet runs somewhere between turtle and snail speed here, so maybe that can be done after I go to Australia on holidays!)
