1 cup tapioca pearls essential for that delightful chewy texture that makes tapioca puddings so special
2 cups coconut milk brings a rich, creamy flavor that complements the strawberries beautifully

¼ cup sugar adds just the right amount of sweetness to balance the tartness of the strawberries
1 teaspoon vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor and gives a warm, aromatic touch to the dessert

1 cup strawberries, diced fresh strawberries offer a juicy burst of flavor that elevates the creamy coconut tapioca dessert

Soak 1 cup of tapioca pearls in a bowl of water for 30 minutes, then drain and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the soaked tapioca pearls and 2 cups of coconut milk over medium heat. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring slowly for about 15 minutes until the tapioca pearls become translucent.
Remove from heat and stir in diced strawberries, ¼ cup of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes.
Spoon the dessert into serving bowls or cups and serve warm or chilled, garnished with extra diced strawberries or toasted coconut.

Soak the tapioca pearls for a full 30 minutes for even cooking. Adjust sugar to taste based on the sweetness of the strawberries.
