Cooking Steps
Cut the papaya into small pieces and remove the seeds.
Steam the papaya until it becomes soft and tender. Alternatively, you can boil it in a little water until it becomes soft.
Once the papaya is cooked, let it cool down to room temperature.
Transfer the papaya to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
If the puree is too thick, you can add a little water to thin it out.
Transfer the puree to a container and store it in the refrigerator.
