What's a physalis? I know all the other fruits but rarely buy anything new as I never know what to do with them/how to prepare them (not keen on mango whole - has to go into a fruit salad!)
Hi,
I have paw paw growing in my garden(i live in Africa)and this is how i prepare it.
You wash the outside, cut down the middle and scoop out any seeds. then gently take of a thin layer where the seeds have been,
sprinkle with lime juice and enjoy.
Paw paw is very good for stomach problems and for the digestive system. The leaves of the tree are used as a meat tenderizer.

Paw Paw is the same thing as Papaya - main thing to remember is that it should be nice and ripe (squeeze it gently like you would an avocado). If it isn't, then leave it for a couple of days.
I sometimes get them cheaper in supermarkets when according to them they are overripe and according to me they are just perfect!!
It is lovely in a fruit salad - it is such a nice colour. I particularly like it with lime juice squeezed onto it and topped with total yogurt.
