Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine tapioca flour and a pinch of salt.
2. Gradually add water, stirring until the mixture is smooth and resembles a thick batter.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil or cooking spray.
4. Pour half of the tapioca mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly to form a thin layer.
5. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
6. Flip the tapioca and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
7. Remove from the skillet and place on a plate. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make a second tapioca.
8. On one half of each tapioca, layer sliced banana, diced mango, and shredded coconut.
