11. Po’e
This delicious fruit pudding known as po’e hails from Tahiti, a tropical island with no shortage of delicious fresh fruit. It can be made with any type of fruit you like, but popular versions include banana, mango, or papaya are the easiest. To make this dish, combine fruit puree with sugar and cornstarch, and bake until it’s set.
In Tahiti, this is a staple of family barbeques, where it’s cooked in a banana leaf in the coals of the fire. Once cooked, the pudding is topped with coconut cream.
