👩🍳 Instructions
- 1 Boil the water together with the pandan leaf until it comes to a boil, then add the sago pearls. Cook while stirring occasionally so they don't stick to the bottom of the pot, for about 12-15 minutes until the sago pearls swell up and turn translucent.
- 2 Once cooked, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the sago sit for 10 minutes so the center cooks through completely and the texture becomes evenly chewy.
- 3 Drain the sago, then rinse under cold running water while gently rubbing it to prevent clumping and to remove the sliminess. Set aside.
- 4 Peel two of the mangoes and cut them into small cubes. Set aside the remaining mango and puree it using a blender or mash it with a fork until smooth.
- 5 Combine the thick coconut milk, liquid milk, granulated sugar, and mango puree in a large bowl. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved, then taste and adjust the sweetness as needed.
- 6 Add the drained sago pearls and diced mango into the coconut milk-mango mixture. Stir gently until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
- 7 Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour so it chills and the flavors soak in better.
- 8 Serve the mango sago in glasses or small bowls, adding a few ice cubes and garnishing with mango chunks on top before enjoying.
💡 Tips
• Choose mangoes that are truly ripe and sweet, such as honey mangoes or Alfonso mangoes, so the dessert tastes its best without needing much extra sugar.
• Rinse the sago with cold water after cooking to remove the tapioca sliminess, giving it a chewier texture that won't turn mushy during storage.
• This dessert can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, but it's best to add fresh mango chunks right before serving so they don't turn mushy.
• For a lighter version, replace part of the coconut milk with low-fat milk or evaporated milk without sacrificing the delicious flavor.
