How to freeze papaya

Step 1

Prepare the baking pan by laying a sheet or parchment paper on top. Wash papaya and remove any stickers. Cut papaya in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and strings.

Step 2

Cut and discard about one inch off each end. Use a knife or veggies peeler to remove the skin.

Step 3

Cut the papaya halves into cubes by slicing it first lengthwise and then crosswise after.

Step 4

Spread the papaya cubed over the baking sheet in one layer. Try to spread them in a way that most of them do not touch each other.

Step 5

Place the pan in the freezer and freeze for about 2 hours or until cubes are frozen firm.

Step 6

Transfer frozen papaya cubed to the freezer-safe bag and place it back to the freezer for storage. Enjoy as needed!
