Cooking Instructions
- Begin by bringing 4 cups of water to a rolling boil in a medium saucepan. Add 1 cup of sago pearls and cook them for about 15 minutes.
- Once they turn translucent, remove from heat and cover, letting them sit for an additional 15 minutes to ensure they're perfectly chewy.
- After the sago pearls have finished cooking, carefully strain them in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse under cold running water to prevent sticking.
- In a blender, combine 2 cups of diced ripe mango with 1 cup of chilled evaporated milk and blend until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, gently fold together the cooked sago, 1 cup of remaining diced mango, and any optional jellies. Pour in the blended mango mixture along with 1/2 cup of coconut milk.
- Stir everything until combined, tasting to adjust sweetness with additional condensed milk if needed.
- Cover the mixing bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve the chilled dessert in individual cups over ice, garnished with fresh fruit if desired.
