Recipe for Sago Pearls

Mango Sago (Hong Kong-Style Dessert)

(Serves 4)

Ingredients:

• ½ cup sago pearls

• 4 cups water (for boiling)

• 2 ripe mangoes, diced (or 1½ cups mango puree)

• 1 cup coconut milk (or evaporated milk)

• ¼ cup condensed milk (adjust to taste)

• 1 tbsp sugar (optional)

• Fresh mint or pomelo (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Sago Pearls

• Boil 4 cups water in a pot.

• Add sago pearls, stir, and simmer for 15 mins (stir occasionally).

• Turn off heat, cover, and let sit 10 mins (pearls should turn translucent).

• Rinse under cold water to remove starch. Drain.

2. Prepare Mango Mixture

• Blend 1 mango + coconut milk + condensed milk until smooth.

• Adjust sweetness with sugar if needed.

3. Assemble

• Mix cooked sago with the mango-coconut mixture.

• Add diced mango (reserve some for topping).

• Chill 1 hour (or serve over ice).

4. Garnish & Serve

• Top with extra mango, a drizzle of coconut milk, and mint leaves.

Tips for Perfect Sago:

✔ Don’t overcrowd the pot—use plenty of water.
✔ Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
✔ For chewier texture, soak cooked sago in sugar syrup.

Variations:

• Taro Sago – Replace mango with taro puree.

• Rainbow Sago – Layer with coconut jelly and dragon fruit.

• Bubble Tea – Cook with brown sugar for boba drinks.
