Virginie & George Ebart, "Down-Island Caribbean Cookery"

      Yield: 4 servings
 
      1 ea Ripe papaya, about 6" long
           Sugar, to taste
           Fresh lime juice, to taste
 
  Peel the papaya & cut in half.  Spoon out the seeds & keep them in a
  small container in the refrigerator.
  
  Cut the papaya into chunks & reduce to a liquid puree in the food
  processor.  Add the sugar & lime juice.  If the puree is too thick,
  stir in a little water, but be very careful that you do not add too
  much water or you will lose the consistency.
  
  Serve in fruit cups with a dab of the reserved seeds in the centre of
  each serving.
