Ingredients
Scale
Fruits:
- 2 Australian Mangoes
- 3 Regular Mangoes
Main Components:
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) mini tapioca pearls
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) full fat coconut milk
- ½ cup (120 milliliters) condensed milk
Liquid:
- 6 cups (1.4 liters) water
Instructions
- Prepare a generously sized pot and immerse tapioca pearls in water, maintaining a gentle medium-low heat while continuously stirring to prevent adherence to the pot’s surface.
- After approximately 10 minutes of careful cooking, cover the pot, extinguish the flame, and allow the pearls to rest and absorb residual heat for an additional 3 minutes.
- Thoroughly rinse the cooked tapioca pearls under cool running water, ensuring complete drainage. Reserve pearls either at room temperature or submerged in chilled water until serving time.
- Select ripe, fragrant mangoes and meticulously dice them into uniform cubic pieces, separating half the quantity for blending and half for garnishing.
- Transfer the portioned mango chunks into a blender, accompanied by smooth, creamy condensed milk and rich coconut milk.
- Blend the mixture until achieving a silky, homogeneous consistency with no visible fruit chunks.
- Gently incorporate the drained tapioca pearls into the mango cream, ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.
- Elegantly plate the dessert by transferring the sago into serving bowls and adorning the top with reserved fresh mango cubes for a vibrant, textural contrast.
Notes
- Store leftover sago in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, remembering that pearls might slightly harden.
- Choose ripe, fragrant mangoes with slight give when gently pressed for the most vibrant flavor and sweetness.
