- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 4 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Cut a large papaya in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Peel the skin and slice the flesh into small wedges. Set aside.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, lime juice, honey, and water. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
Step 3
Cook the raspberry mixture for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries soften and break down into a sauce-like consistency.
Step 4
Remove the raspberry mixture from heat and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the seeds.
Step 5
Let the raspberry lime sauce cool to room temperature.

Arrange the papaya slices on a serving plate and drizzle generously with the cooled raspberry lime sauce.
Step 7
Optional: Garnish each serving with a fresh mint leaf for a touch of green and added freshness.
