During lunch yesterday, I thought it might be fun to try to make some tapioca pudding, since I had some taro-flavored tapioca pearls. I started by boiling 3 cups of milk.

Then I added the tapioca pearls (this was just 1/2 cup, but I later added the rest of the container, probably 1.5 cups or so.

Just barely boiled them for 5 minutes.

Then I mixed in a half cup of sugar.

Boiled for another few minutes. Then, elsewhere, beat two eggs, and mixed some of the milk/tapioca mixture back into the eggs to warm them up so they wouldn't turn into scrambled eggs when I mixed them into the pot. Then I mixed them into the pot and boiled a little longer until it thickened up.

Then I let it cool until after dinner. Now it was time for some lunch. I had some pre-packaged palak paneer with some jasmine rice I made in the rice cooker. Quick and easy.
Amazing! Tapioca pudding looks great. I'm back from a long weekend with all my sisters and no free time, so I'm going to try to get back on the saddle with picture-taking. We had some delicious meals together, though. Fish tacos and falafel.
