Recipes with sago pearl
This Sago Pearls Cake offers the unique softness of chewy sago grains combined with soft coconut milk and the inviting aroma of pandan. When steamed to perfection, the fragrance of desiccated coconut envelops each piece—giving it a light savory sensation and a tempting texture. The cake pieces are dense, yet soft to the bite, then sprinkled with desiccated grated coconut that adds a touch of natural sweetness and a layered texture. A comforting traditional dish, perfect for a relaxing afternoon or served as a nostalgic sweet treat.
Purple Sweet Potato and Sago Pearl Coconut Porridge offers an interesting contrast of textures—mashed purple sweet potato combined with soft sweet potato chunks and chewy sago pearls—all mixed in a thick, creamy, slightly sweet coconut milk sauce. The bright purple color provides visual appeal, while the savory-sweet aroma is mouthwatering; this dish is perfect enjoyed warm for breakfast or cold as a refreshing snack. However, care is needed when cooking to prevent the coconut milk from separating and the sago from cooking evenly, and to avoid making the sweet potato soggy that it loses its contrasting texture.
Round, translucent sago pearls float in a milky white coconut milk base, with soft, powdery taro chunks nestled within. No fancy seasonings, just pure coconut and taro aromas—the simple, home-style flavor is the most appealing! The sago pearls are smooth and chewy, the taro is stewed until soft and melts in your mouth, the sweetness of the coconut milk and the glutinous aroma of the taro blending perfectly. Best of all, it's a low-calorie version—delicious and guilt-free. Chilled, it's refreshingly sweet and cleansing; warm, it's smooth, comforting, and fragrant.
