Best 5 Papaya Sprouts Recipes

PAPAYA STEW RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the sofrito: Add the cilantro, green bell pepper, red onion, garlic, and olive oil to a food processor. Process until the mixture is fully combined, chunky, and uniform in color.
• Make the stobá: In a large bowl, pour the sofrito over the spare ribs, tossing to coat well. Marinate at room temperature for at least 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease with nonstick spray.
• Place the shredded plantain in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Using the back of a spoon, spread the plantain evenly into a thin round, 6-8 inches wide.
• Bake the plantain round for 15 minutes. Remove the plantain round from the oven. Let cool slightly, then lift the plantain on the parchment paper and invert into a medium bowl. Place another medium bowl inside to set the shape of the plantain bowl. Let cool completely.
• In a medium saucepan, add the water and cured pork tail and simmer for 15-20 minutes to draw the salt out of the pork tail. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside.
• Melt the coconut oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until lightly browned and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
• Add the pork tail and cooking water, marinated spare ribs, and the salt. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 90 minutes until the meat is tender, adding more water if it evaporates too quickly.
• Add the green papaya, ripe papaya, mango, sweet potato, nutmeg, turmeric and coconut water to the stew. Cover and cook for another 45 minutes, until the meat is tender and the fruit is cooked through.
• While the stew cooks, spread the reserved papaya seeds on a baking sheet. Transfer to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, until lightly toasted and crisp. Set aside to cool.
• Place the plantain bowl inside a coconut shell or medium bowl. Ladle the stew into the plantain bowl. Garnish with the toasted papaya seeds and shredded coconut.
• Enjoy!

PAN SEARED PISTACHIO ENCRUSTED SCALLOPS OVER PAPAYA AND TANGERINE RISOTTO WITH A TRIPLE PEPPER SPROUT HASH

Steps:

• In a flat-bottomed saute pan, add the oil and heat. Roll outer edges of the scallops in the crushed pistachios. Sear in a hot pan for 1 minute (will give you a medium rare temperature). Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Spoon the risotto onto 2 plates. Top with the scallops and then the hash. Serve immediately.
• Begin by heating the vegetable stock and the cream in a medium size pan, and bring to a boil. In a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan, melt the butter then add the onion. Begin to sweat the onions and add the rice to the pot, stirring constantly to avoid sticking. Add the garlic and sweat. In 4-ounce increments, add the liquid to the rice, stirring constantly to avoid sticking until the liquid is absorbed. Repeat this process until the rice is "al-dente". Add the diced papaya and tangerine. Season it with the salt and pepper, to taste. The risotto should be firm and creamy.
• In a large skillet, add the oil and saute the peppers. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove from pan, and toss with sprouts. Serve.

PAPAYA SOUP

Steps:

• Heat coconut oil in a stockpot over medium heat; add onion, red bell pepper, chives, garlic, rosemary, sage, ginger, and chile pepper. Cook and stir until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add tofu to onion mixture; cook, stirring every 2 minutes, until tofu is golden brown, about 6 minutes. Season with salt.
• Mix Worcestershire sauce and lime juice into tofu mixture. Stir water and bouillon together in a bowl until dissolved; pour over tofu mixture. Bring liquid to a simmer, add papaya, loosely cover stockpot, and simmer until papaya is tender yet firm to the bite, about 20 minutes.
• Remove stockpot from heat, stir on spinach, cover, and allow to sit until spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Ladle soup into serving bowls and top with fried onions.
