A dash of lemon juice (absolutely your choice, if your using coconut oil don't use lemon juice)
Coriander leaves - few 

 Method :

1. Peel or remove the skin of the Tapioca. Cut it into three.
2. Put it in the water , let it boil. Check for doneness ,like insert a knife in the middle, if it passes thru easily then it is done.
