Tapioca pudding is a creamy pudding with tapioca as its main ingredient, either in the form of tapioca starch or granules. You can serve it cold, hot, warm, or iced, and it is prepared in many cuisines worldwide. Most recipes include some flavouring, such as mango or vanilla, since tapioca has very little flavor on its own. This recipe is a Nigerian version that uses coconut milk.
