Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Sago pearls
- 500 ml Skim milk
- 200 ml Water
- 50 grams Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 100 grams Fresh fruit slices (e.g., mango, strawberry, banana)
- 1 sprig Mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Rinse the sago pearls under cold water until the water runs clear to remove any excess starch.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sago pearls, skim milk, and water.
Stir the mixture frequently to prevent sticking, and bring it to a gentle simmer.
Cook the sago for about 20-25 minutes until the pearls turn translucent, stirring occasionally.
Add the sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.
Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, or until the pudding thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat, and let the pudding cool slightly. It will thicken further as it cools.
Serve the sago pudding warm or chilled in individual bowls.
Top each serving with fresh fruit slices.
Garnish with mint leaves if desired before serving.
