"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
Vlimia got a large spoonful of the raw honey, and made sure none dripped on the floor or on her clothes. Then she dipped the spoon into the cauldron and let the honey slowly dissolve. When she had done the same thing three times, Vlim got the basil leaves and chopped them as finely as she could, with her lovely silver knife. She watched the proffesor quite viciously stab a poor papaya and drop it in the boiling cauldron. In reminded her slightly of what the Romans used to do to traitors: Chafe their bones, and boil them in oil! She doubted the papaya was a traitor, though. A little less violently than the proffesor had done, Vlim carved a few large, blunt holes into the fruit. Then she stuffed her finely cut basil into them, and thought the result looked quite nice, like a type of weird food art. When she was done admiring the "art" she dropped it into her cauldron with a satisfying Plop!
