Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Mango Sago Dessert
First off, let's prepare our star ingredient - the mangoes. Peel and cut one mango into small chunks. The other mango will be used to make a puree.
In a blender, add the second mango (cut into chunks), sugar, and a bit of water. Blend until you get a smooth puree.
Now, onto the tapioca pearls. In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to boil. Add the tapioca pearls and let them simmer on medium heat until they turn transparent. This may take about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the cooked tapioca pearls and immerse them in cold water. This will prevent them from sticking together.
In a large bowl, combine the mango puree, coconut milk, fresh milk, and the cooled tapioca pearls. Stir well.
Chill this mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours.
When ready to serve, divide the pudding into individual bowls. Top each bowl with mango chunks, crushed ice, and a sprig of mint. Your Mango Sago is ready to be relished!
