Mango Sago


  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 1 hour 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the Mango Sago Base:

  • 2 large ripe mangoes (peeled and diced)
  • ½ cup small sago pearls
  • 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess)
  • ½ cup evaporated milk (or substitute with more coconut milk)
  • 2 tablespoons condensed milk (adjust for sweetness)
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, if mangoes aren’t sweet enough)

For Garnishing (Optional):

  • Extra diced mangoes
  • Chia seeds or basil seeds
  • Toasted coconut flakes
  • Mint leaves

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Sago Pearls

  1. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the sago pearls and stir to prevent clumping.

  2. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, or until the pearls become translucent with a tiny white center.

  3. Turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the sago sit for 5 more minutes until fully transparent.

  4. Drain and rinse under cold water to remove excess starch, then set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Mango Puree

  1. In a blender, combine 1 ½ mangoes (reserve some for garnish), coconut milk, evaporated milk, condensed milk, and water.

  2. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.

Step 3: Assemble the Mango Sago

  1. In a large bowl, mix the cooked sago pearls with the mango puree. Stir well to distribute evenly.

  2. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour for the flavors to meld.

Step 4: Serve and Garnish

  1. Spoon the Mango Sago into serving bowls or glasses.

  2. Top with extra diced mangoes, coconut flakes, or mint leaves for an extra refreshing touch.

  3. Serve cold and enjoy!
