Mango Sago Dessert with Coconut Milk | 30 Min

Instructions:

1. Bring 6 cups of water to a rolling boil in a large pot. Slowly add the sago pearls, stirring immediately to prevent sticking.
2. Boil the sago for 10–12 minutes until the pearls are mostly translucent with a tiny, opaque white center. Turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let them sit for 10 minutes until completely clear.
3. Drain the sago pearls using a fine-mesh strainer and rinse immediately under cold running water to remove excess starch and stop the cooking process.
4. Scoop the flesh of two mangoes into a high-speed blender. Add the coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk, and sea salt.
5. Blend on high until the mixture is perfectly smooth with no visible fibers.
6. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mango puree with the cooked sago pearls. Stir well to ensure the pearls are evenly distributed.
7. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to marry and the texture to thicken slightly.
8. Serve in chilled bowls topped with the remaining diced fresh mango and optional mint or pomelo.
