"Next steps... Pull your wooden spoon, and add 3 spoonfulls of raw honey..." She looked over to the Gryffindor prefect. "It doesn't have to be perfectly measured... you just add it by eye." She showed the students how to do it, letting the hot liquid melt off all the honey from the spoon. "Take 5 basil leaves and slice them thin, as thin as you can, with your silver knife." And she did what she said to the letter. "Now what you want to do is take a papaya, whole and with the same silver knife, stab the fruit and stuff some of the basil in the wound. Keep stabbing until you make enough holes for all of the basil. Then add it to the mixure. Whole."
1 whole Papaya
Aurora scourgified her spoon and carefully added three wooden spoonfuls of the honey one at a time. Then she picked up five of her basil leaves and, with her newly cleaned silver knife, sliced them as thinly as she could. Now... what? Cool. She picked up her papaya and stabbed her knife into it, filling the hole with basil, she did the same thing until she had used all of the basil and then added the papaya to her cauldron.
