    Mix tapioca with remaining sugar, milk and yolk in saucepan, and let stand for 5 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Cook and stir tapioca mixture over medium heat until it comes to full boil. Gradually add the egg white mixture, stirring just enough to blend. Stir in vanilla.

Tapioca on its own is delicious, a neglected classic; no need for sweetened fruit.

Great recipe. I substituted skim milk with whole milk and I made the mistake to use some candied fruit and still put all the sugar so it turned out a bit too sweet but even then it was really tasty. Next time I'll do it just with dried fruit.
