Preheat the oven to 300F (150C). In a small, preferably non-stick, saucepan, heat the cubes of papaya over low heat, stirring constantly and mashing the fruit.
Cook until the flesh is slightly dried out and its juice evaporates. Do not let the fruit brown or burn. Reserve.
In a blender or food processor on low speed, combine the papaya, the evaporated milk and whole milk. Add the eggs, one at a time, blending constantly, until you have a homegenous mixture.
Pour the mixture into a glass or ceramic custard form (previously caramelized if desired).
Place the form in a bain-marie, fill the bain-marie with boiling water to the depth of the mixture in the form and put the bain-marie in the preheated oven.
Cook for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, or until a toothpick inserted into the flan comes out dry and clean.
Remove from the oven, and remove the flan from the bain-marie. Allow to cool completely while at room temperature, then refrigerate if desired.
Serve at room temperature or chilled.
