Steps (6)
Cook Sago: In a pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the sago pearls and cook for about 10-15 minutes until they turn translucent. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Once cooked, drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
Prepare Mango Puree: In a blender, combine half of the diced mangoes with the coconut milk, condensed milk, and sugar. Blend until smooth.
Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the cooked sago pearls with the mango puree. Stir well to combine.
Chill: Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and to chill the dessert.
Serve: Divide the chilled mango sago into serving bowls. Top with the remaining diced mangoes.
Garnish: Optionally, garnish with mint leaves or a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for extra flavor and presentation.
Additional tips
- Mango Variety: Use sweet and ripe mangoes like Alphonso or Ataulfo for the best flavor.
- Consistency: Adjust the thickness of the dessert by adding more or less coconut milk according to your preference.
- Serving: Serve chilled for the best taste. You can also add ice cubes for an extra refreshing touch.
- To make more: double the ingredients.
