1. In a heatproof bowl add tapioka, salt and sugar and mix well. Bring water, milk and coconut milk to the boil and pour over the tapioca mixture. Stir well.
2. Cover with a clean tea towel and let the tapioca absorb the liquid, stirring once in a while. Add 300g fresh coconut and stir again.
3. Tip mixture into a glass serving bowl and gently press down to remove any air pockets. Sprinkle with freshly grated coconut (optional). Coer and chill for 4 hours till set. Pour condensed milk over pudding if desired and serve. Abdecken und 4 Stunde im Kühlschrank fest werden lassen. Nach Belieben mit Kondensmilch begießen und servieren.

Tipp

If you prefer a lighter pudding, use less milk and more water.
