Mango Sago

Mango Sago

A chilled tropical dessert made with creamy coconut milk, chewy sago pearls, and sweet mango puree layered into a refreshing and vibrant treat.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup sago pearls
  • 2 large ripe mangoes
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup condensed milk (optional)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar (to taste)
  • 4 cups water (for boiling sago)
  • Ice cubes (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a small pot. Add sago pearls and simmer for 10-15 minutes until mostly translucent, stirring occasionally.
  2. Turn off the heat, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes. Rinse under cold water and drain.
  3. Peel and dice mangoes. Blend 1½ mangoes into smooth puree. Dice the remaining for topping.
  4. In a bowl, mix coconut milk, condensed milk (if using), and sugar. Stir into the cooled sago pearls.
  5. Chill the sago mixture and mango puree for at least 2 hours.
  6. To serve, layer mango puree at the bottom of a glass, add sago coconut mixture, and top with diced mango.

Notes

  • Use ripe mangoes like Ataulfo or Alphonso for the best flavor.
  • Rinse sago thoroughly to avoid clumping.
  • Chill ingredients separately before assembling for clean layers.
  • Adjust sweetness based on mango ripeness.
