Preparation Time:2 days | Serves: 400 gm

Ingredients

Raw Papaya-1(500gm)

Sugar - 2 Cups

Water- 2 Cups

Vanila Essence- 1 tsp

Food Colors- Red,Green,Yellow

Method:

This step is not mandatory-If you are using fresh Papaya from the plant then u need to make a slit on the skin of papaya to remove the raw milk from papaya.Just allow it to sit on the plate for 1 hour so all the milk will come out.

If buying store then you may not need to do the above step.

Peel the skin , inner seeds and inner soft flesh.Wash it well and cut into tiny cubes.

Now blanch the papaya cubes in hot water for 5 mins -this step further remove the papaya smell and milk from the cubes.

Mean while lets prepare the sugar syrup by adding sugar and water.

Now strain the papaya cubes from the blanced water and keep it ready.

Once the sugar dissolved completey add in the papaya cubes and let it allow it to cook for 15 - 20 mins.

These are the things you need check whether its ready or not ?-The sugar syrup should reach single string or almost to single string consistency,papaya should be transulent and the papaya cubes should become soft.

Once its done switch off the flame and add the vanila essence(this helps to completely remove the papaya smell and enhance the flavour).

Now take 3 container with 3 different food color in it and divide the papaya equally along with suagr syrup into food color containers and mix well.

Allow it to sit over night for minimun of 12 to 15 hours(depends on papaya cubes).

Now Drain the cubes and dry it in a plate lined with some tissue paper| News paper for 2- 3 days .

Once the stickiness is absorbed you can use the tutti frutti. But to use it for long period dry till the moisture goes..

Once it ready press the cubes with your finger and der should be any liquid oozing out.

Store it in a airtight container and refrigerate for longer use.

Use it in cake,bread,cookies,icecreams,smoothies.
