***Cook's Notes - Whatever yogurt you use STRAIN it first through cheesecloth in the fridge for a couple hours. The thickness helps the dish. Vanilla yogurt also works really well with this dish. More lime zest was also suggested - someused the zest from 2 limes.

You can substitute your favorite fresh fruit - if you'd rather have banana instead of papaya do so.
