Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Small tapioca pearls
- 2 medium Ripe mangoes
- 400 milliliters Low-fat coconut milk
- 1 liter Water
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Begin by rinsing the small tapioca pearls under cold water in a fine mesh sieve to remove excess starch.
2. In a medium saucepan, bring 1 liter of water to a boil. Add the rinsed tapioca pearls and stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking.
3. Cook the tapioca pearls for about 10-12 minutes, or until they become translucent with a small white dot in the center.
4. Once cooked, drain the tapioca pearls and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process and prevent clumping. Set the pearls aside.
5. Peel and dice the ripe mangoes into small cubes. Keep a quarter of one mango aside for garnishing if desired, pureeing the remaining mango to use in the dessert.
6. In a mixing bowl, combine the low-fat coconut milk, sugar, and mango puree. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
7. Add the cooled tapioca pearls into the coconut and mango mixture, stirring gently to combine. Ensure the pearls are evenly distributed within the mixture.
8. Chill the mango sago in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to enhance the flavors and allow the dessert to thicken slightly.
9. Serve the chilled mango sago in individual bowls, garnishing each serving with the reserved diced mango and a fresh mint leaf if using.
10. Enjoy your homemade Low Fat Mango Sago as a delightful and refreshing dessert.
