How to Make Norwegian Strawberry Tapioca Dessert

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup tapioca pearls and 2 cups water. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  2. Reduce heat to the lowest setting and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the tapioca is translucent and the mixture has thickened (approximately 15-20 minutes).
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 1 package (3 oz) strawberry Jell-O and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until completely dissolved.
  4. Gently fold in 2 cups of frozen strawberries (thawed and drained, or use fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced).
  5. Pour the mixture into a bowl or individual serving dishes. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely chilled and set.
  6. Before serving, top with whipped cream (optional) and a sprinkle of fresh strawberries or a sprig of mint for a touch of elegance.
