Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 cups water
- 1 cup sago pearls
- 1 can unsweetened coconut milk
- 2 large red mangos (divided)
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup coconut sport
- 1 cup attap fruit (drained & rinsed)
- 1 cup strawberries (diced)
Instructions
- Boil 6 cups of water, then add sago pearls. Turn heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat, stir, cover, and let sit for another 15 minutes until pearls are translucent.
- Strain tapioca pearls and rinse with cold water until pearls are no longer hot and excess starch is removed. Add to a large bowl along with coconut milk, and stir to combine.
- Peel and slice 1 ripe mango, then add to a blender along with condensed milk and blend until smooth.
- Add mango mixture to the bowl along with coconut sport and attap fruit. Dice remaining mango into chunks along with strawberries and add to bowl. Stir to combine.
- Mix ice into individual servings if you want to enjoy it immediately, otherwise cover and chill in the fridge for 4 hours. If you wish, serve topped with diced fruit and a sprig of mint.
Notes
- It's okay if there are some pearls here and there that are still white. Even if they aren't translucent they should be soft by now and will become translucent over time.
- Sago pearls will expand quite a bit so make sure you add enough water to accommodate them!
- This mango sago recipe is thick like a pudding but is sometimes served with more liquid, almost like a drink or a cold soup. To achieve this, you can either reduce the amount of tapioca by half, add more coconut milk, or you can serve it over ice, which will thin it out as it melts.
- For a more intense mango flavor and richer color, you can blend an additional mango or two.
- Mango sago will become thicker after sitting in the fridge.
- While mango sago pudding is best served cold, the lower the temperature the less sweet it will taste. You may want to add a drizzle of condensed milk for added sweetness before serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate.
