A light, creamy dessert mixing chewy sago pearls with fresh strawberries for a simple and refreshing treat.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup sago pearls
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1/2 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
- a pinch salt
Instructions
Preparation
- Rinse the sago pearls under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the sago pearls and cook on medium heat for about 10–15 minutes or until they become translucent, stirring occasionally.
- Once cooked, drain the sago and rinse again under cold water.
- In a separate bowl, mix the coconut milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Combine the cooked sago pearls with the coconut milk mixture and let it sit for about 10–15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Serving
- Serve the sago in bowls topped with fresh strawberries and enjoy!
Notes
Chill before serving for a refreshing result. Rinse sago well to remove excess starch and adjust sugar to taste as strawberries add natural sweetness. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; if it thickens, stir in a little coconut milk before serving.
